I was looking at cards I don't have and noticed TSC says 'you may not have the new Jerusalem dom card in the same deck. Can someone clarify this? Why you can't have both in your deck at the same time? Thanks

The two "free" rescues seems a bit much too  

I know of no other game were 4% of your deck (2 cards out of 50) automatically accounts for 40% of your win condition (2 Lost Souls out of 5) with no significant cost, limitation, downside, or counter. In Type-2 it is even more significant (2% of your deck accounts for 28.6% of your win condition).

On the other hand, one card can account for taking away 20% of your opponent's win condition...

That's almost just as bad.

Because of that it's even worse because not only can you get 40% of your win condition from 2% of your deck but you can lower your opponents win condition by 20% AND gain 40% of your win condition with 3% of your deck. If those cards didn't exist you would have more balance just because of the power imbalance being righted.
