I think it's more about someone who's gone too far in his religious beliefs and is a crazed fanatic. "I went out walking .. with a Bible AND A GUN"??? Christians aren't exactly known for being gun-toters unless they slip off the edge of sanity.

Good song nevertheless and Johnny Cash does a great job (as per usual). It was neat to see Bono sing it during the tribute show on TV to the late Mr. Cash.

@dryah You must not be American. American Christians are known for being gun-toters and off the edge of sanity.
