The name "Magdalena" is a bibilcal reference to someone who lost their way, in a religious sense, someone who was once a person of God but is no longer (as in Mary Magdelene, i think).
Judith is more about the concept of blind faith, the idea of people believing something because they're told to, rather than any particular church. That's what I read on the APC website, anyway. Maynard's really into the whole "think for yourself" thing.
As for your video idea I think it's great, I'd like to do something similar with Tool's Eulogy. Get a whole bunch of Jesus movies out on video and put bits together to fit the music.
