Answer

Hi Jeremy,

Dave addressed touring with Slayer recently in a post on the Megadeth Forums:

"...As I continue to walk out this life, and being a Christian, I have realized so much, and I have grown so much too. In the beginning, I was very cautious, and as I understand more, I am safely adding back into my life all the things that I set aside, because I just didn't know what to do about it.

This is why I am spiritually at peace with being out with Slayer; this is why I have apologized to them and have not been getting baited by journalists that are bringing up, "he said, you said," crap. I also have forgiven them for anything that was or is being said, because I did say some hurtful things in the past.

I have taken this same new attitude into everything I can with my life. I have learned so much over the last seven years that it is mind-boggling. And this is why, and the only reason why, I have changed my mind. My heart told me that I would be doing myself a favor and I would make a lot of people happier if I focused on the "love" part of my new life."
