For the people who are describing themselves as agnostic, agnosticism is completely different from theism and atheism. Agnosticism deals with what you know, while theism and atheism deals in what you believe. Theism describes belief in a god, and atheism decscribed no belief in a god, not belief in no god. What is described as 'strong atheism' should really be call non-theism.
People who say that the threat of hell and promise of heaven keep people in line need to review the christian religion. The christian bible says that faith gets you into heaven, not deeds. The oldest argument illustrating this is asserting that Hitler, a catholic, could get into heaven, as long as he believes in Jesus, while Gandhi would go to hell for his lack of that belief. There is no justice in this kind of judgement, and there's nothing to stop any christian from going genocidal.
And for those who say that religion is the only reason for war, you are right. It is merely a tool that drives differing opinions against each other. But, would you let 3rd graders take guns to school?
Anyway, the song is awesome. I just heard it 2 hours ago, and now I love it.
