I love this bit of graffiti at a rest stop in Secret Six: Unhinged, because it's the sort of thing you would see in the U.S. in a world that was mostly equivalent to ours, but with the addition of Superman. 

I find theology in the DCU to be fascinating. I myself am an atheist, but it's very difficult to imagine what my belief system would be in a universe where the Spectre is the right hand of God and people have actually gone to Hell and returned.

Plus, the angels/demons/metahuman corollary is very rich and interesting.

I think you could still be an atheist, but your approach would have to explain the difference between metahuman powers and miracles.  I find it all very compelling, and I obviously go to that well pretty often. I have had people yelling at me for 'supporting' religious views that I don't hold, but that the characters do, which I always see as understandable, but a little bit of a sad statement on how we process fiction currently.

[Emphasis mine.]

Yeah, trust me, a failure to separate character's beliefs from the author's is not why people are yelling at you.

People yell at me for all sorts of reasons, some with justification and some purely invented. Perhaps you could explain what it is you are referring to?
