I think this is not necessarily about religion. I think it's about finding your own path, and that you should be judged on how you live. You might make mistakes when younger, but that you can always change your outlook and become a better person.
It goes with the growth and evolving of HWM's music too. Songs like Rocksinger are very angry and full of hate, while this song is all about a calmer and more accepting outlook. It's a message to all those people who are negative about others for no actual reason, just for the sake of it and how being bitter and angry is ont the way to live, and only when you free yourself from the shackles of hatred can you really grow and be happy.
