'Profits,' as used in this song has a double meaning. One being the Prophets who wrote the bible, the other is a refrence to how christianity has become commercialized.
My favorite lines in the song are "Genesis and Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers, Gideon is knocking in your hotel while you slumber." I think its a refrence to how Christians are infltrating our lives, often without our desire or consent.
Also in the song is the refrence to slavery. Certain biblical passages were used by slaveowners to justify their actions. I think that the 'voodoo' the white man is saving is the willingness to exploit religious beliefs for economic gain.
