Do you use the MaxActiveReligions on Worlds table? It should work just fine. But it only applies to new games, not the current ones.

Example:

UPDATE Worlds
SET MaxActiveReligions = 2
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_DUEL';

UPDATE Worlds
SET MaxActiveReligions = 3
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_TINY';

UPDATE Worlds
SET MaxActiveReligions = 5
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_SMALL';

UPDATE Worlds
SET MaxActiveReligions = 7
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_STANDARD';

UPDATE Worlds
SET MaxActiveReligions = 9
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_LARGE';

UPDATE Worlds
SET MaxActiveReligions = 11
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_HUGE';

the Worldsizes.sql? yes, i have it like this

-- This file changes the minimum city distance for major and minor civs depending on mapsize. Change these values as desired.

-- DUEL - 3 Minimum for both

UPDATE Worlds
SET MinDistanceCities = '3', MinDistanceCityStates = '2', ReformationPercentRequired = '250', MaxActiveReligions = '6',
NumCitiesPolicyCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTourismCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTechCostMod = '5', ResearchPercent = '100',
NumCitiesUnhappinessPercent = '150'
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_DUEL';

-- Tiny - 3 Minimum for Major, 2 for Minor

UPDATE Worlds
SET MinDistanceCities = '3', MinDistanceCityStates = '2', ReformationPercentRequired = '200', MaxActiveReligions = '7',
NumCitiesPolicyCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTourismCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTechCostMod = '5', ResearchPercent = '100',
NumCitiesUnhappinessPercent = '125'
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_TINY';

-- Small - 3 Minimum for Major, 2 for Minor

UPDATE Worlds
SET MinDistanceCities = '3', MinDistanceCityStates = '2', ReformationPercentRequired = '150', MaxActiveReligions = '8',
NumCitiesPolicyCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTourismCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTechCostMod = '5', ResearchPercent = '100',
NumCitiesUnhappinessPercent = '115'
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_SMALL';

-- Standard - 3 Minimum for Major, 2 for Minor

UPDATE Worlds
SET MinDistanceCities = '3', MinDistanceCityStates = '2', ReformationPercentRequired = '100', MaxActiveReligions = '9',
NumCitiesPolicyCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTourismCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTechCostMod = '5', ResearchPercent = '100',
NumCitiesUnhappinessPercent = '100'
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_STANDARD';

-- Large - 3 Minimum for Major, 2 for Minor

UPDATE Worlds
SET MinDistanceCities = '3', MinDistanceCityStates = '2', ReformationPercentRequired = '80', MaxActiveReligions = '10',
NumCitiesPolicyCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTourismCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTechCostMod = '5', ResearchPercent = '100',
NumCitiesUnhappinessPercent = '80'
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_LARGE';

-- Huge - 3 Minimum for Major, 2 for Minor

UPDATE Worlds
SET MinDistanceCities = '3', MinDistanceCityStates = '2', ReformationPercentRequired = '60', MaxActiveReligions = '11',
NumCitiesPolicyCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTourismCostMod = '5', NumCitiesTechCostMod = '5', ResearchPercent = '100',
NumCitiesUnhappinessPercent = '60'
WHERE Type = 'WORLDSIZE_HUGE';

-- Default value that the values above can never exceed (minimally)

-- Min City Range
UPDATE Defines
SET Value = '3'
WHERE Name = 'MIN_CITY_RANGE';

This issue was solved rather elegantly by G about 6-years ago.

Someone (or someones) has "fixed"/broken it since -- its been at least a year or two since G's method was no longer fully working, with worldsizes table still functional but religions capped at 11-ish (I used to play with up to 16 religions some games, was a little much but it worked) -- and recently congress has fixed it again (i was one of only 2 votes against lol); so I'm guessing what we're now seeing, if its really stuck at 8 again, is democracy in action, breaking things that were fixed just fine half-a-decade ago.

edit: sounds like this might be sorted, see https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/new-version-3-6-2-may-27-2023.683857/post-16470753

Wouldnt it be better to just include this as an option in the game setup instead of fiddling with the files? A slider like the one for the amount of city-state.
Unless there's some reason I dont know that makes it very hard to code this into vox populi.

I don't have any insider knowledge, just what I've seen on the forums here, but I infer that in current version you can't change it. Next version probably will be able to once again.
