The idea here is about power, doing the right thing, believing that the human race is worth respecting, saving/protecting, etc. Ideas that Zod, the real villain does not share.
Remember the line about deciding what kind of man he wants to be? Good or bad? This all ties into that.
As others have said...fantastic concept, underwhelming execution.
