I agree that this song is definitely a jab at religion. The lyrics literally say "Who are you? What have you become? Animal." The lyrics are begging "Gideon" to come down off the wall and give us a sign. As someone mentioned before religion has become a lifeless entity.
Overall, if you evaluate religion today and through history it's evident that it has caused so much conflict and stratification. Religion should not cause war and violence it should promote peace, equality, and tolerance. Humanity is taking a turn for the worse and we need faith although it's becoming harder and harder to stay faithful in something that is commonly associated with these problems.
