I've read about the Church before (
http://www.enviroweb.org/coe/) and I
saw them on Springer. Their basic message is that there are too many
people and we're all ruining the planet. So, they attempt to shock people
into realizing this by advocating suicide, abortion, cannibalism, and
sodomy...the four pillars of their "religion." They claim that people will
never pay attention to groups like Zero Population Growth
(
http://www.zpg.org), who just want people to stop reproducing.
Interesting approach and, in some ways, it works. They were on Springer
after all. I'm sure there are many people who are much more willing to pay
attention to that than some web site. They may not have realized what the
Church was trying to get across, but they did hear about it at least.
Anyway, their site does mention the album and you can even read all the
lyrics (
