Oracle / Cleric multiclass and channel energy

[emacleric]

Hello everybody! 
I have two questions:
1. If I make a Life Oracle/Cleric (multiclassing) do their channel positive energy abilities stack (about uses per day and healed damage)?
2. Can a life oracle, who wants to multiclass with cleric class, only become  a Pharasma, Gozreh or Sarenrae cleric? Or can he select an other deity?

Thank you

See this FAQ entry for #1.

1) Channeling (sadly) does not stack, unless specifically mentioned (FAQ Quote)
2) Oracles do not necessarily worship anything (some do, for flavour).

So you could be an evil life channelling oracle who takes levels as a negative channel cleric. They don't stack.

You are also gimping the hell out of your character.

What are you trying to accomplish?

1. I'm not sure, RAW. Personally, I'd say they do though, meaning you get a total of 3+Chr mod Channels (going with the higher number), and your levels in the two classes stack for determining how much they heal.

EDIT: Ah, okay, officially doesn't work. That definitely trumps my personal opinion (which was shaky anyway).

2. The Gods associated with Oracle mysteries are loose suggestions at beast, you can worship any God you like (including none at all) as an Oracle, and thus be a Cleric of any God you like.

Though I've gotta ask: Why are you doing this? It's an awful choice mechanically and completely unnecessary thematically, why are you even considering it?

From the best healer thread a while back...

A healing cleric with a one level dip into life oracle(You can get multiple revelations via extra revelation feat) is possibly the best healing build out there.

Exactly :)
