Religious Affiliations of the Super HeroesI found this very interesting.Who knew that Batman was a lapsed Catholic who is now an Episcopalian? It was easy to guess that Catholic Girl was Catholic (how come there's no Catholic Avenger? That would be a cool name for the Pope's alter ego and while I'm rambling - who ever heard of Catholic Girl?). But did you know that Ben Grimm (the Thing from the Fantastic Four) is Jewish? Magneto (the X-Men super villain) is also Jewish.The funniest one I thought was J. Jonah Jameson who is the employer of Peter Parker. His religious affiliation is listed as "hates Spider-man". I just found that amusing.Here are some of the major super heroes / villains and their religious affiliations:Superman - MethodistSpider-Man - ProtestantBatman - Episcopalian/Catholic (lapsed)Lex Luthor - Nietzschian atheist (I would have guessed Lutheran)The Joker - atheist
