Camelot

At first, I was confused about why the worldview of this was Christian, because obviously there is a lot of immorality. However, I realized then that there was a definite line of right and wrong, even if the characters were choosing to do wrong. Justice is a very Christian element, and King Arthur's whole kingdom was based on a righteous, just law system. Also, King Arthur chooses to let Jenny and Lancelot continue their affair even though it hurts him, which shows him to be a sacrificial character. Arthur embodies the Christ-like sacrifice, which is extremely Christian in worldview.
