I think this song is a mocking criticism of religion. Worry leaving when he realized he "knew it all" means he's found the answer to the big questions, the same way religion gives people the answer to life's big questions, and how it "begun" and how it "ended".
In many ways religion encourages people to judge others whose answers to life's questions are different from yours. It's a "judgement".
Not having to think for himself because the religion tells him which way is the right way - when the screen/team (religion) tells him what to do, he does it without question.
@loosegrin I don't think of it so much as a criticism of religion as a whole, but rather extreme views. He makes no attack at believing in general, only at believing that one is somehow divinely superior to others.
It sounds very Israeli-Palestinian conflict to me.
