So it seems that there will be no mesoamerican religion. Why is that? What are your thoughts about this?

Ah, I see. Well, 2K stated that they added two odd religions. Probably just for fun.I think Tengriism (Johan de Witt, that's what the bird symbol is) is an odd choice. It doesn't seem to have the same organization compared to the other founded religions.
Perhaps you can change the name in-game? Otherwise, more religions can (probably) be added through mods.Well, if I had a choice... then yeah, I'd totally be worshiping Quetzalcoatl or a solar deity. I mean it's meant to be a fun game in the end.
But there could be some clutter though...

There is no animist religion (the closest is the Mongolian tengriism religion). However, the way they describe the pantheon (as opposed to organized religion) seems decently close. It seems possible to develop a spiritual pantheon involving animals as deities.
There is still plenty to be revealed about the Beliefs.
I suspect that core tenets of other religions will be represented in the Pantheon list.
Also, It appears that you can rename your religion, much as you can rename a city. Just make the name what you like, adopt the pantheon of your choice and BOOM, your own personal cult sweeps the globe.
I really like this system. I hope there is a Fertility Goddess pantheon belief. That will be a fun concept to base a religion around. I will elevate Spring Equinox and Harvest Feasts to be the ultimate holidays of the year and wait till you hear my ideas on 'celebrating' Valentine's Day!
I personally think they should have left Tengriism out just because 10 is a much better number than 11.
That being said, all the religions they added are current religions. I'm not sure who still worships Quezalcoatl.
