 I, too have interpreted this line as a reference to Manson.
 If I remember right, he, as so many cult leaders, considered
 himself Christ returned.  I think Joni was being sarcastic (and
 cryptic).  What could be more out of whack than people strapping
 themselves to big roman candles and propelling themselves into
 the heavens, and Jesus a mass-murderer.  Still, she sends up
 her prayer, wondering who is there to hear....

Exactly what I was trying to say. Thanks for putting it more clearly than I 
apparently did.
Indeed, Manson WAS claiming to be the messiah, or something akin to that.
