The most egregious examples probably lie in the names of the obligatory giant mech suit analogues, but honorable mention should go to "the spear of Longinus" [[spoiler: assembling voltron-style with the main character's mech to form a giant cross-shaped kamikaze superweapon thing]], which makes about as much sense in terms of Catholicism as it does in context of the story (so... none whatsoever).
