I lost my capital around 100 turns ago and reclaimed it around 70 turns ago. I cannot get it to stop flipping from culture. I am using the +2 gov policy & +2 garrison. Even after putting in a governor city just flips slower. Part of the problem is the -3 from not having a religion and my religion is basically extinct so I can't reclaim it in the city. Other than razing one of the nearby AI cities (I am well behind in science), is there any way to fix this city to be loyal. The city is growing incredibly slow and I can't manage to increase its population in a timely fashion before it flips. Also I originally built the gov center there but apparently it got lost when I lost the city. I now can't build a new one until I get to pop 7 which isn't going to happen.

60% of the time works every time
Pillage blue cities to reduce their pop, or remove them from the map.
Or make it rebel again, wait till it will get more pop and reclaim again

60 science per turn and 35 culture per turn on turn 210? There's your problem. Unless you're on Settler or Chieftain this game is a loss anyway. Getting your population up in your own nearby cities and razing a blue city or two will probably keep the city for you, but it won't do you much long term good.
I was playing on King and didn't want to quit since I can't remember the last time I lost on king. I hate playing with this Civ since my production is terrible. I managed to save the city by doing a bread & circus in a neighboring city. I have since taken half of their cities and am on my way to coming back

I find this shocking, but good on you if true. And yes Mali is brutal for production early game, but by turn 150 it doesn't matter as you're swimming in so much gold and faith you should be ok. Plus with all the mines you should be building your base production will easily catch up, though that 30% malus towards buildings and units can still be rough. I find them a lot of fun and strong in their own right, but not top tier.
