Yeah, like the proficiency represents training and study, but an Int (religion) check usually involves knowledge of deities, mythology or symbology. That said, you might rule that a practical application of that knowledge, such as how to perform ceremonial rites, might constitute a Wisdom or Charisma check instead.
Something I've always liked about White Wolfs d10 systems is the ability to roll a skill against any attribute depending on situation.
If I'm rolling to determine knowledge of religion, int+religion.
If I'm rolling to verify I'm performing a ritual correctly, wis+religion.
If I'm rolling to dodge the advances of the local priest, dex+religion.
