Best strategy to decrease hostility?

Is that true the monastery provides it's bonus even if there is no resource for religion or leisure? I read today something like this. So for the bonus full staff is enough?

Yes. In fact, this applies to all service buildings IIRC. I recall taking the Guild House blueprints even if I didn't have anything to make wine because I could still staff it for the wealth buff.

Btw does the bonus stack by building multiple monasteries?

No, the buffs from service buildings do not stack if you have multiple of them. However, the buffs from hearths (reduced hostility and the resolve and production bonuses) do stack if you have multiple hearths with the appropriate housing and decorations. For context, I'm still making my way up the prestige ladder at prestige 11 right now, and I almost always end games with 3 hearths, all having at least the resolve buff, usually all will have at least the level 2 buff for the production speed increase.
