I am wondering at what point the card Replenish checks for a valid target for the Enchantment Auras in the Graveyard.
The Rulings state "Auras can only be placed on permanents that were on the battlefield before this effect started to resolve. You can’t put an enchantment onto the battlefield with Replenish and put an Aura that is also entering the battlefield onto one of those enchantments."
The wording of this, specifically the "Auras can only be placed on permanents that were on the battlefield before this effect started to resolve" makes me curious what happens If I have Athreos, God of Passage on the battlefield as an Enchantment lacking devotion when I begin to cast Replenish
To make it super clear I will run down a hypothetical.
No. The legality of what you choose to enchant (note that this process doesn't target, auras only target when cast as spells) is checked before anything enters the battlefield and Athreos would be a creature, so he can't be chosen for attaching Pariah.

I have Athreos, God of Passage on the battlefield alone.
I cast Replenish returning Underworld Connections , Black Market , Phyrexian Arena , Pariah
Is Pariah able to target Athreos, God of Passage?
Thanks in advance for any insight you are able to provide me
