I would try and run your game stats through Fulminato's 3AW Calculation tool before you conclude there's a bug to report. Having the save editor helps you know what your variables are going in.

There are a lot of moving parts in the game calculations and it's easy to get lost.

Your description of the Religion check at the start is a bit too obscure for me to be sure which one you are talking about, but there's no direct feedback in the game text that indicates that the "Inquisition Withdraw" switch has been thrown after you talk to the Inquisitor in the Aram forest.
