I guess the moral of the story is that Slayer is awesome and you should let your kids listen to them despite your pesky religious affiliation. My mom didn't want me listening to Slayer at all during my childhood either, but my dad would always listen to me/lend me their CDs. It made me a better person.
I guess moral number two is to not take intentially shocking lyrics (for their time) seriously or else you will look like a loser with bad taste.
