I'd rather this show just build up it's own mythology and have the weight of events come from, well, the events. Then, and only then, you can go ahead and put in religious alegories if you must.

That is why I didn't get involved in the whole apple discussion, as the apple doesn't really make sense in context, unless the ending message of Gaim is to disobey orders, and embrace sin for greater reward but lower karma. So basically, take the easy way out.

But I highly doubt that, as tokusatsu heroes are practically defined by taking the longer, harder road, that will lead to greater enlightenment and less physical gain.
