Like how? I'm not sure he gets anything wrong, Christian, Jewish, or Eastern. I've always been of the opinion that his poetry is not instructive or descriptive when it comes to religious matters. On the contrary, religion informs his life and stories. He takes what he wants, bits and pieces here and there, but when we hear Leonard, we are hearing a voice where the poetry comes first, above all else, and he is never concerned about theistic accuracy as much as internal integrity.

But if you are more specific with a particular verse, I can definitely opine whether it seems to be in line with Christian dogma.
