“With Ne Zha 2 turning a spiritual war between heaven and demons into a light, morally fluid romp, it just might cause some viewers to think about whether they should take their own religion seriously.”

Gods and demons don’t occupy the same moral space in many other religions that they do in Christianity. Gods aren’t necessarily good, and demons aren’t necessarily evil, nor do they always come from a hell or a devil (if a given religion even has either of those things, which isn’t guaranteed). The point isn’t that those other religions are “just as good” or just as valid as Christianity, or vice versa, but that it does us no benefit to assume that certain things occupy the same purpose in both sets of religions just because they happen to share a category or a title.
