Could it not be argued that the movie is promoting idolatry by having the people of Earth view Superman, a non-human, as a "Christ-like redeemer?"

Not likely.  Superman never sought the worship of people.  Neither did Zod for that matter.  Interestingly, in this movie, Zod is an anti-hero.  He may have intended well, as his patriotism is to be admired, and I really don't blame him for killing some corrupt Krypton, but, tragically, in the planned economy, he was predesigned to be a warrior to continue the corrupt planned economy of Krypton.  True, there is free will in the predesigned society (Jor El and his wife did break the law by having Kal naturally and Jor El broke the law by taking Kal from the Genesis chamber and sending him to earth.  It was that Jor El believed that the whole society was too corrupted to be continued  along the Krypton way and thus that Zod's idea of only keeping the good bloodlines, as he put it, wouldn't solve the problem.  What made Zod a villain wasn't his efforts to save Krypton, but his efforts to kill everyone on earth when he could have just assimilated like Kal.  (So the movie isn't pro-open borders either (though I heard a super man comic was lately!!!) as Kal adjusts but the alien Zod comes in and tries to transform the planet to his liking just like the illegals and Muslims are trying to transform the USA.)  Also, Kal El/Clark Kent just wanted to be left alone (even ticking off the military when they tried to track him and he destroyed some pricey equipment to get them off his back).  [[User:PatriotMongoose|PatriotMongoose]] ([[User talk:PatriotMongoose|talk]]) 01:53, 13 October 2017 (EDT)
