Devil Survivor 2 deals with the Akashic record, fate, and astrology, which is much more "neutral" by comparison and isn't as closely tied to religion.
Japan doesn't give a crap about offending people with the Christian references in the media. Like I said, DeSu 2 was probably chosen because its events are easier to adapt into episodes.
