Attack of the Theocrats!
Here are the actual lyrics in question from Hysteria by the band Aiden. It seems pretty clear to me that the "church burning" is one item in a list of evils that religion does to the rest of the world (including burning churches and other holy books that aren't the right holy book)
Love how they burn your synagogues Love how they torch your holy books Filling coffers with your grief Filling coffins with your misery Faith holding outright criminals safe This is just the world we live in Can you justify the pain The death of fiction will save us all
Hysteria We live We die I wont give up In a world worth saving goodbye I don't have anything to fear I live, I live hysteria
Wait supporting outright genocide Hate let us all disseminate A message to your herd Our voices will be heard Now faith is a question you can choose Faith whether Christian, Muslim, Jew Still you all distort the truth The death of fiction will save us all
Searching for the answers are you asking all the questions Will the evidence suffice your fear Human evolution is the only real solution All the truth you gotta hear Would you stand and fight
