"But I'd rather risk my fate, Than to lose my faith." He is saying that he disagrees with some things from the Bible, and he would rather risk going to hell then compromise his beliefs.

"In the lovin, the hatin," Says that religion can cause both love and hate

"The constant debatin, The chaos, the calm." This is just describing all the debating, fighting, wars and politics that surround religion.

"The constant deny" The religious are denying reality, because religion is much nicer.

There's one problem with your interpretation gelaa, though I don't necessarily have a better explanation. It says: "I'd rather risk my fate than lose my faith IN the lovin, the hatin" etc. Which means to me that all of these things in the chorus are things that he has faith in. Which seems a little strange. Thoughts?
