I actually agree with 22 - Kira wanted to be God, and from a non-religious stance, a deity is something that is worshipped in the manner that he was, that hands out judgement or favours. One of the things I loved most about Death Note was the part nearer the end where Kira was so idolized.
As for 20... see 22. Really. There is a megachurch in my city that wants people too afraid of hell to do bad things. Death Note had a really good understanding of people - just like how in the comic, there was (at first) an internet following of strange people who thought that Kira's ideas were good... so has the fandom mimicked that. The fandom has proven the way that the writer of Death Note said people would react to an idea like Light's.
