With the exception of Jews and Muslims, Khan's empire largely had a policy of religious [[pluralism]].<ref>[https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/reviews/genghis-khan-and-the-quest-for-god/ Did Genghis Khan Invent Religious Freedom?], The Gospel Coalition</ref> Khan called Muslims/Jews slaves and was offended by Jewish [[kosher]] eating practices and he forbade the Muslim halal method of butchering animals. Jews were forbidden to practice circumcision and eating kosher. Muslims slaughtered sheep according to Islamic practices in secret under Khan's reign over them.
Genghis Khan had six Mongolian wives and he established a large harem. Research indicates that he may have fathered thousands of children and it is theorized that 1 in 200 men alive today can trace their lineage to Genghis Khan.<ref>[http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-456789/Genghis-Khan-The-daddy-lovers.html Genghis Khan: The daddy of all lovers], Daily Mail</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htEXmRHjf5s BBC Genghis Khan]</ref>
