[General Superheroes] Why isnt there a cult of Superman? Or religions forming because of other superpowered individuals?

In our universe if there was an impossibly strong flying superhuman from another planet people would flip out. There have been suicide cults killing themselves over flimsier logic. I imagine most world religions would be shattered in the wake of a literal demi-God walking the Earth.

In The Kingdom, the not as successful prequel to Kingdom Come, the main villain started out as a young man who tried to start a church around Superman, but became unhinged when Superman told him to cut that shit out.

Similarly in a post-COIE Superman story, there was an old woman living in a bad part of Metropolis who is saved by Superman from some disaster, and becomes convinced that he's a literal angel from God, sent to answer her desperate prayers.

So she gets it in her head that God gave her the power to be able to summon Superman whenever she prays and starts going around Metropolis looking for disasters and troubles, and 'summoning' Superman by praying.

He tells her to cut that shit out, espcially cause she's basically walking into dangerous situations for no good reason, but she isn't convinced.

IIRC, one day she decides to confront a violent gang that was preying on her neighborhood. When someone pulls on her she prays for Superman, but he's on the otherside of the world helping some non-idiot.

By the time he reaches her, she's already dead. But he ends up not even having to take care of the gangsters because all of her neighbors rise up and apprehend/citizen arrest all them out of disgust for killing that old lady.
