He also points out how ironic and almost disgusting it is that in such a "Christian country" you still see people who are poor, homeless, and hungry begging on every street corner.... "quarter in a cup for every block".... Also, I think the "sun goin' down" line isn't a jab at the Resurrection but a jab at people who use their "faith" as a front or a selling point. Their actions, when seen by some one who doesn't believe like Ben, only diminishes Christianity's credibility. It makes Jesus "go down."
