* The writer of ''The Son Of Dracula'' once got in an argument with the head of UsefulNotes/TheComicsCode over whether Christians would be offended if he put in a reference to the book's main character being powerless inside a church (both the writer and the head of UsefulNotes/TheComicsCode were Jewish).

* ''TabletopGame/GURPSBanestorm'': Most people believe that God's power is qualitatively different from magic. The Catholic Church is thus very careful when making saints, since they have to make a distinction between miracles and spells (even raising the dead just requires a skilled necromancer).

* ''Literature/Area51'': Although some Airlia in the past presented themselves as gods and sacred artifacts like the Ark of the Covenant were actually just their technology, no one suggests Jesus (nor Buddha or Muhammed etc.) were just disguised aliens or their brainwashed servants, even though they're shown to set up a religion which worships them, and others are formed on their own. This was likely to avoid backlash.

** On the other hand, Buddhism has been able to co-exist with theistic religions, usually by holding that while the gods exist, the gods themselves are on the same reincarnation cycle, being ones who are really close to Englightenment but got distracted to be gods. While other deities chose not to proceed to nirvana but stay behind and help others achieve it.

* "Series/{{Supernatural}}" gets around this by simply not mentioning Jesus at all. In a world where God, Satan, Demons, Angels, Heaven, Hell, Purgatory, the Bible, the Apocalypse, the Four Horsemen and a plethora of non-Judeo-Christian gods all exist, no one has ever asked in eleven seasons "Where is Jesus in all of this?" Not even the angels who have been looking for [[DisappearedDad God]] for over six seasons.

** The [[HolyGrail Urn of Sacred Ashes]] can restore the dying to perfect health with just a pinch of Andraste's ashes. This could be the Maker acting in the world...or it could be because the Urn has rested for centuries on a giant vein of lyrium.
** [[JeanneDArchetype Leliana]] receives a vision of the Grey Warden's coming, prompting her to join up with him/her. It could have been a message from the Maker...or it could have just been a lucky hallucination. When she describes the vision it's incredibly vague, she just interpreted it that way.

* ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'': Nothing has indicated Christianity has ever existed, though there's still local religious milieu with monotheistic beliefs. Alchemy may be related to the generally secular tone of Amestrian society. Fuehrer King Bradley is something of a militant atheist, which given his...family background...is understandable.\\
