Somebody tells Clark: "That's the difference between believers and nonbelievers. We believed you would be the next savior."
Eternal review Tess refers to Clark as "a visitor from another planet sent to Earth to save humankind."
Later Tess and Davis (Doomsday) are talking:
Tess: "Who would Christ have been if Judas had not betrayed him? Maybe we would remember Jesus as only a teacher roaming the desert. There is a savior among us. You are here to betray him. I finally realized that until you fulfill your destiny, he won't have his greatest challenge to overcome. He cannot become the world's savior without triumphing over the world's destroyer."
Davis: "What savior? What are you talking about?"
Tess: "Clark."
This is another reason why I don't watch Smallville. It's disrespectful to put Jesus on the same level of a fictional character. I know that Smallville didn't start it, but they took it to another level.
