While I can't disagree that Superman may have been somewhat modelled after Jesus, I don't think these reasons count.  Superman died something like 50 years after the comic was created, the original creators obviously did not intend for him to ever die, this is something they just thought to do recently to make his character more interesting.  Also, several other heroes and enemies have been able to duplicate Supermans powers: Superwoman, SuperKid, Zod, or anyone else who came from krypton. 
ChadTower:

That's right.  You follow a model for a while and then as the character evolves you pick and choose aspects of the model that work.  Superman doesn't make water into wine either.

And we were always told he only had one weakness . . .

 I barely remember the older superman movies.  And never really read comics..

 I watched this movie only because it was released in stereoscopic Imax 3D.

 I didnt have high hopes of liking the movie..   more or less I just went
to see the 3d effects.  Sadly, the entire film wasnt 3d.. only 4 sections.

 The 3d was pretty decent... tho a little buggy due to the convertion
instead of actucally being filimed in 3d.  Still, It was cool to see
a decent film in 3d.. rahther than the substandard Imax 3d clips.

 (The Polor Express in 3d Was the Bomb!  :)  )

 The moive, turned out much better than I expected.  I didnt realize
this was a continuation rahter than some remake.   Some
cool ideas here...   very well done.   

 Spoiler...........
































 I especially liked that the Kid is now Part human and part superbeing.  IF they can somehow
kill off Superman...  the Kids adventures could make for some interesting adventures,
as he would have much more weaknesses.  This would open up many more possibilities.

 As it stands,  Superman is truely Too powerfull.  Its hard to believe his character lasted as
long as it did.
