What religious denomination is Superman?

Question

One might expect him to be a Christian, given his role and legendary status in the U.S.A. But he's seen quite a bit of space between Krypton and Terra ... and he's basically a god in his own right.

And some people claim he's gay ... not that there's anything wrong with being gay.

Others claim he is the embodiment of present day Christ.

Still others claim Christ was gay. I get so confused.

Wonder Woman is into Greek Mythology, right? You know, being an Amazon and all. Would you consider her attire inappropriate for church? Why is her jet invisibile ... you can still see her floating in the air ... so why does it matter if you can't see her jet?

I hope Wonder Woman isn't a lesbian ... it would make me cry.


Jesus wept.

Answer 1

!?!!? What connection do religious and gender choice have with each other? Whatever.. anywho, these characters are fictitious and were made for the exact reason of escaping the shackles of reality such as religion, which seperates us humans from each other so viciously. They have no religion, and they never will.

Answer 2

Methodist I believe because of his mid west upbringing, but at least one of his"real parents" was Jewish, and from Toronto ON Canada. Gay? not sure but the ambivalence in his relationships and the running around in a costume with tights and a cape do suggest at least a touch of kink. About Wonder woman, the lesby thing is uncertain but the tight shorts and the see through jet certainly betrays a broad streak of rampant exhibitionism, while the ever present rope indicates an obsession with bondage. Note that in both cases these behaviours were part of a "secret life" and suppressed in day to day life, but it was the middle 20th century and they may not have been ready to come out of the closet, even to their closest friends, quite sad when you think about it really.

Answer 3

Superman is a creation of man and deep down we all long for a supreme being who is an embodiment of good and justice to fight against evil. Cynically, Superman is a modern day idol for some and a refusal of the real truth - Jesus is God etc... People still want an all powerful being but yet want control over him hence the vulnerability to kryptonite.

Answer 4

Superman was written by 2 Jews. They tried to make him seem like he was very major religion. In the movies you can see that they try to make him seem like a Christian, but that was not the purpose the oringal writers wanted for him.
Wonder Woman is Greek correct. and since she is greek, daughter of a goddess, why would she be going to church??
As for her jet, i just don't kow!!

Answer 6

Well, he was raised in Smallville, Kansas from babyhood. He's probably a Republican Christian. Kent is an English name, so he's got a selection of denominations to choose from, though it's unlikely he's Lutheran, Catholic, or Episcopalian.

Answer 7

Given Superman's white-bread midwestern upbringing, I'd say he's a Lutheran.

Answer 8

Superman woud take own the religion of his creator, and in this case, I believe the people that invented him were Christian.

Answer 9

Some people believe he would be Jewish, given his name (Kal-El) and that his comic book creators were Jewish; however, some other people believe he is either Protestant or a representation of Jesus Christ.
