If you convert an AI opponent's cities, will they decide not to found a religion?
I was looking over at this "what should I do with my prophets" question, and realized that I couldn't give good advice because I wasn't sure whether you could prevent another civilization from starting a religion. After all, if you can use your second Great Prophet to convert enough cities that the AI just says "eh, looks like I'm religious already, this'll do," then it makes converting your enemies a much higher priority than enhancing your own religion. And since a given civ's religion is "whatever 50% of my people believe," a civilization might decide that they don't want to change "their own" religion by founding a new one.
So, if you convert an AI opponent's cities before they found a religion, will they give up on founding their own religion? Or will they found a religion anyway and try to spread the good word to their own cities? Does it matter which AI it is?

From my understanding of how religion founding works: yes you can stop AI from founding religion. when city is religious - prophet that will born in that city will be of this religion. So - if your religion will be dominant in all of his cities - then he wont get prophet that can found religion. As you cant spawn first two prophets on your own - they are born randomly, i don't know if you don't need to be dominant only in his capitol.

What happens if you lose your religion Civ 6?
You probably have to get a little lucky to get your religion to spread past Jerusalem though. If you clear your holy city of any hostile religions, you can also resurrect your religion by building the Mahabodhi Temple wonder. This wonder grants you two apostles of your religion.How do you get rid of other religions in Civ 6?

Conversion with Religious unitsMissionary and Apostle spreads also have the effect of eliminating other religious pressure in a city by 10% and 25% respectively. This is unaffected by damage and can prove to be more effective than the respective increase of the pressure of their own Religion by a specific amount.I used an A.I. to make videogame characters fight to the death
