| Although this is not the most popular Slayer song, it is probably in my top five favorite Slayer songs. Obviously it is about someone with sadistic behavior with the use of a gun. However, since the song is called Hallowed Point (hallow meaning holy, or honored reverently) I have taken it to be a subtle attack on religious violence and the fervor people kill because of their religious beliefs. I think Slayer might be exposing the hypocrisy in religious violence...all the major religions of the world condemn murder, but there religious factions fight one another all the time, usually not solely because of religious beliefs, but religious beliefs definitely play a part in the violence. This is also clear with the line "The power of a gun, Used with conviction" (one of the meanings of conviction is a firm belief) and also with the line "Imagine the innards of your soul, The infliction". Slayer is not usually one for subtlety so I'm not sure if that's what the song is about, but that's how I interpret it. | |

| I reckon it's about soldiers storming a beach or...something of the sort, killing folks, As only Slayer can describe. | |
