Because it makes civ C like civ A better. It would also behoove you to spread it to city-states to make nice with them.

Are Missionaries definitely limited solely to Faith purchases?
If Firaxis isn't careful then by the time it is possible to generate the amounts of Faith necessary to make the religion a lot larger the religious mechanic is a going to be fading away.
Given that the tech tree has been expanded & beelining slowed down, I think that is unlikely. A civ pursuing religion will also be putting a lot of effort on making lots of faith just like civs going for culture focus on culture.

The religious mechanic doesn't fade away, it only impacts diplomacy less.
I assume it fade away in the sense that pressure from nonbelievers increase and since a lot of the bonuses are based on number of followers it will fade away unless you do something active to keep you people religious. That might even be difficult assuming increasing costs of missionaries.
Oh well this is all speculations, but I hope it works like this. It would only mean you had to do an effort to keep all your lovely religion bonuses late game.
We have been told only that after the Renaissance, the diplomatic modifiers decrease and costs of Faith-purchased units like Missionaries increase. Nothing has ever even been hinted at about the benefits of Beliefs decreasing, nor anything about decrease in the number of believers.
Several of the previewers have mentioned religion "fading away," in the later game, but their preview versions don't go past the Renaissance, so they don't directly know what they're talking about.

I am also wondering if a unit can kill a missionary/inquisitor.
Since they can cross borders without open borders, if a player/AI tries to attack a missionary will they be allowed to? It could make spreading a religion with missionaries much more difficult in multiplayer but interesting.

If it's possible I would hope it would lead to increased Diplomatic tensions among you and other nations or all nations who share the same faith.
I agree. Or if it would start a War during multiplayer, as diplomatic relations don't do much when you're playing with non-AI.
I don't think you can attack any unit of another civilization unless you declare war.
They have mentioned missionaries and so on becoming more expensive with time; that was the basis for what I said. It didn't read all that clearly, though.
It's going to be harder to spread it in that manner; presumably they don't want missionaries in 1900 AD.

Guilds is a new tech, as seen in this video. Unlocks Trading Post, among other things, and starts the Medieval Era

It's also when the Dutch get access to the Polder, so we can expect tulips to come into play from the middle ages onwards.

Well possibly. But it could depend on the beliefs the person chooses. Spreading religion with 100 gold per city, could lead to civilizations attacking missionaries of that faith (in multiplayer). I guess it would really depend on the beliefs and their power.

I really hope the gap between Longswords-Musketmen and Musketmen-Riflemen will increase. As things are now, Musketmen are in such an awkward position that you hardly ever build them, which makes the tons of unique Musketmen replacements rather pointless (I mean, how often do you really build a Tercio or Musketeer?). I'm hoping they'll either make the Musketmen a continuation of another line of melee unit (maybe Pikemen-> Musketmen), or alternatively put them in another part of the tech tree so you can chose whether to go for muskets or longswords.

Nice video! Does anyone notice that at 3:18, Genoa seems to have porcelain as a luxury?
Yes, Guilds is the same tech that we saw only a piece of following Currency.

I don't really like the icon, though ! They should have used a coffer instead.
