The Peteran/Jacoban thing is a little icky to me as it obviously presents a good religion and a bad religion, and the good one appears Protestant Christian while the bad one makes use of too many anti-Catholic and anti-Jewish stereotypes for my comfort level. (I mean, I am a Protestant Christian in real life, but that doesn't make me feel any better about this.)
I don't know, I think this is a matter of interpretation. For example, they actually both seemed Catholic to me (which would be more historically accurate, anyway, for a medieval setting), with the Peterans reminding me very strongly of some sort of hybrid of maybe Franciscans and Jesuits? Whereas the Dominicans, IRL, were sometimes referred to as Jacobins at one time, I believe. Other people might identify them more with other orders of the Catholic church, but that was my personal impression. But I definitely did not think it was set up as a Protestant v. Catholic dichotomy.
