the average american church is more about laying the blame than spreading the guilt

The thread goes down hill, while the water runs UPHILL!
Will the mysteries ever cease???
(I've always seen Terry's fascination for the mystery spot as a metaphor for mystery itself...)

You guys may have the count right, but you're all barking up the wrong tree.
This is one of those classic misunderstood lyrics. What Uncle Terry is actually talking about is "Miss Treespot," his beloved 5th grade teacher. He used to bring her flowers every morning, which she would place behind her ears. He alludes to this also in the first line of "Grace Is The Smell Of Rain: "They call her flower ears..."
Please, people do your homework!!
By the way, the Mystery Spot has nothing on Kentucky's own "Golgotha Fun Park" which was probably the inspiration for "Bibleland":
