I initially thought of the inverse of this actually, though I don't think she is advocating any position. I looked up the lyrics to see if they seemed to advocate agnosticism, since she is saying she had changed (the lyrics to "Turn It Off") and was a Christian when the band started and emerged from the Bible Belt. Now she has toured the world and performed with many outspoken atheists/agnostics, refer to Set Your Goals "Old Book Misread," which I was immediately reminded of by these lyrics. She's seen that an outlook advocating having definite answers to the biggest mysteries of the universe is quite silly. (Jesus, son of God who created the world 1000 years ago, etc.) I don't think she is turning away from religion as much as asking others not to accept an outlook that claim they have the only definite answer.
It may have nothing to do with religion at all, though given the lyrics and theme on this album, there seems to be a spiritual vibe going on...
