I suppose so... I know I'd be offended if someone tried to include religious references in serious discussions of any topic. But note that there's nothing implicitly "religious" about the excised stanza from "Hair"...presuming that the bible is based on historical characters, Rado & Ragni's lyric is no more offensive than if they sang about Napoleon and his mom.

Still, I think it does more of a disservice to the readers here to arbitrarily edit song lyrics because someone might misunderstand them & take offense.
