A lot of people today don't want to admit it but our modern concept of morality, right and wrong comes from christianity. The idea of equal rights regardless of gender is inherantly christian, the Bible says "Women obey your husbands" yes but in that same verse it says "Men love your wives". A man that loves his wife isn't going to treat her like a slave. It was also what made monogamy popular, it stated a man should have one wife and love her completely.

The idea that greed is wrong, that we shouldn't purpsue vengeance etc, they all stem from our christian heritage (I refer to ALL of Western Civilization). It would only make sense that many of our modern heroes, who are suppose to encapsulate these morals and beliefs would in some way emulate Christ. Also Teridax, as you said El is a Jewish/Arabic word that means God, so think about it, Superman's Kryptonian bloodline is called the House of 'El'.
