its fiction. see tony's post above. the album is a concept album that feeds off of the notion that God abandons mankind, (similar to what he does in the Flood story and to Sodom and Gomorrah) only in this case he completely abandons the world, leaving it to its own destruction. in the album, God DID forsake us, so its not necessarily a reflection on Dan Weyandt's views on God's relationship with society and mankind. Unhappy lyrics for an unhappy concept. But maybe seeing what happens in a concept like this has woken a few people up.
