Been almost a week, but since no one asked a thing, I will try to precise what Parallo said.
It may be hard to exaplain. Pantheism is about belief in a god, which presence is shown in the nature. The only way i could be true for CO is that Aiwendil be one, but Aiwendil is merely a spirit, if we try to compare this state to a state of a god. So not exactly Pantheism.

But Aiwendil is kind of idol to many, an individual worth following after. And so her teaching. She show herself in any form in the nature and speak through it. It may be why she is identified with the nature, like in Pantheism, but not a god and so no religion. Like i explained in previous post, this space is filled with something else.

Pantheism is about the reverence of nature in all its forms and the worship of natural laws. Its closer to atheism than theism.
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

It depends of the encyclopedia definition.
I gues it is how CO is seen from the outside. While for CO members there are facts, for people outside the brotherhood there are beliefs and so they call it religion, but i can never agree with that. Thus no one is permitted from worshiping Talad or Laanx at the same time.
