Deatha - I agree to a certain extent. The title is pretty funny once you read the Wikipedia page, but I think DWP had a bigger message than just picking fun at Scientology (although this is one of the few songs that the title has to do with the song subject).
I think the song is about the lead singer saying that in the end, they are up on the stage for one reason; to spread the message of God. Not be preachy or anything, but none the less spread the message to whoever will listen. They are not on the stage to make tons of money, become stars, etc. I remember an interview I saw when the band members said that "they are doing music to praise God for the talent He gave them as well as reach out to people".
The song then progresses about how the history of story telling (music) has become full of pride, narcissism, etc. from the world's POV, but the story from Jesus and DWP will not have any of that. It offers love, hope, etc.; things that are not as prevalent in the world.
