Rousing Courage is a religion trait from divine anthology.
Once per day, when you generate an effect that grants a morale bonus, increase that bonus by 1 for all creatures affected.
If an effect generates multiple morale bonuses, such as a barbarian's rage, does this trait apply to all of them or just one? Would a barbarian have to choose between strength, constitution, or will saves? Would a warrior of the holy light paladin have to choose between attack rolls, damage rolls, ac, or fear saves? Or would this trait increase all morale bonuses generated by an effect?

Since an effect is everything packaged within it (all the bonuses the effect provides), I would say any morale bonuses provided by that effect increase by +1. So, for the paladin archetype, it'd apply to all those bonuses that are morale bonuses.
It's unclear to me whether "that bonus" above means all morale bonuses as you say or just one. It would be clearer if they worded it like "Once per day, when you generate an effect that grants one or more morale bonuses, increase each bonus by 1 for all creatures affected," but they didn't. It may be that wording it like this would sound too awkward, or the authors didn't consider effects that granted multiple bonuses when they wrote it. Since RAI seems unclear, I want to go with RAW, which seems like it would only affect one morale bonus? Am I wrong about the RAW?
