Veganism/"Animal Rights" are apparently religions too. Separate ones.
I like doing the Elliot S! Maggin thing and mentally compiling my own list of what the characters' religions are, but the inherent flaw with the lists found on the net like this is that they barely make any differentiation between "beliefs" and "background", other than throwing around "lapsed" occasionally enough that its absence become questionable. Superman is apparently a practicing Methodist who still goes to church on Sundays?
There's also the fact that absolutely none of this applies to the DC universe the way it's actually printed every month. It's more like a list of what these characters would be if they lived in the "the real world". Otherwise, it's ludicrous that there's a single atheist on that whole page.
