Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.

The mod is currently undergoing a pretty large celtic overhaul and is thus not fully released.
Try the Alpha, it contains a bunch of new features that need testing, but might be broken or incomplete.
Description:
This mod aims at recreating dead or pseudo-dead religions in vanilla Crusader Kings 2, the current release features the ancient cults of the brythons, gaels and greco-romans. Other plans include Basque, Guanche and Mesopotamian paganism and further plans include Egyptian paganism and the Cult of Cthulhu.
