The song isn't pro-religion. If anything, it's against religion. Theologians don't know nothin'. Yes, we have souls, but they are too mysterious for religion to understand. That's my take.

Jeff is basically quoting John (New Testament) in this song. Pharisees were the theologians of Jesus' time. John 7:34 (quoting Jesus) says "You will look for me, but you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come." Later Jeff sings "and no one is going to take my life from me..." which refers to John 10:17-18 that quotes Jesus as saying, "The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life-only to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord."
