Tough call. As you have seen, BoB and I disagree with this, so you will have to decide based on your playing style.

My suggestion would be to (using a female drow, since a male's favored class is mage) dual the paladin over to cleric at level 2, then go all the way with cleric. Lathander clerics are probably the best IMHO.

BoB's suggestion is to give the rogue plenty of points in the Use Magical Device skill, which will allow the rogue to use priest spell scrolls. You will not have as powerful a cleric if you try to do this (like using a BG2 rogue as a mage), but you will have all the more melee power with 3 paladins.

Pick either option.
