The Christian stuff seems to be less of a Susan-issue until the later books. What grated in the film was how she was expected to drop the behaviour she's been forced into and encouraged in as soon as she was told about the prophecy. Most of her reluctance to join in was due to wanting to keep Lucy safe - as Peter did - but Susan's reluctance had a negative, boring & unimaginative cast given to it, while it was made to appear adult & kingly in Peter. It's the disparity I didn't like, and I don't remember it being so obvious in the book.
