I also would feel like accepting the semicolon, but after thinking twice I notice that
religion=religion1;religion2;....;religion
denomination=denomination1;denomination2
would become even more problematic already.

Why? Of course, you must include the dependencies and keep in mind that
    religion=religion1
    denomination=d1

is just an abbreviation for
    religion=religion1
    religion1:denomination=d1

As soon as the short form isn't unique anymore you have to return to the full fleshed form. Here that would be
    religion=religion1;religion2;....;religion n
    religion1:denomination=....
    religion2:denomination=....

(not all religions have denominations necessarily).


Your problem is like a shop that sells many kinds of goods, a building that serves many purposes, a water that can be of many types, a crossing that's in fact a passage across or along any way, a dam that is not a circular waterway, etc... I think they all have the same generic solution.
And so it is!
