Like [[24]], the show has been criticized for its depiction of torture as a useful interrogation method. One of the series' main characters is a former Republican Guard torture expert.

On the other hand, much in the way of Christian imagery and themes permeate the show's narrative. For example, one important character's name is "Christian Shepherd," another was a priest and former child soldier, and several characters exemplify the conflict between [[science]] and [[faith]]. One of the show's executive producers, Carlton Cuse, has often stated publically that he's a Christian whose faith informs his writing.<ref>
