Short summary of your issue
Character's religions generated at start and spawn during gameplay is not based on state religion

Game Version
1.2

What OS are you playing on?
Windows

Do you have mods enabled?
No

Have you tried verifying your game files?
Yes

How much "pain" is this causing you?
10

Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
This is barely noticeable because most countries have the same state religion as well as religion linked to culture, but there are exceptions, this can be observed in the beginning with the Württemberg nation, whose culture is south germanic and with protestant state religion, but as the south germanic culture is linked to catholicism, all characters in Württemberg are catholic (with the exception of the leader of the devout Protestant group, but after he dies he is replaced by a catholic), this problem is still visible with Shintoist Japan and the Taiping kingdom, both cultures connected mahayana but distinct state religion, generated characters are still mahayana

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
See Württemberg characters, or see new characters from Shinto japan or taiping kingdom, but there are also formable nations whose state religion is not standard, like catholic germany, muslim ethiopia and sikh or muslim india

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
Generated characters are always of the culture's bound religion, not the nation's state religion.

I have attached a save game
