===Meaning===
In an interview with U. Magazine published April 1994, [[Trent Reznor ]] spoke about the meaning behind the lyrics of this song:
<blockquote>"I was trying to explore some of the paranoia I have as a sexually active person in the age of AIDS," he says of "Heresy." "I guess I feel cheated for not growing up in a more liberated era. At the same time, what gets me mad is the way the right wing has used the 'convenience' of this epidemic in helping to promote their own agenda." [http://nothing.nin.net/int30.html]</blockquote>
===Song Credits===
*Production: [[Trent Reznor]]
*Mixing Engineer: [[Alan Moulder]]
===Heresy (Version)===
'''''Running Time: 5:19'''''
This remix samples "In Suburbia" and "Television Believers" from Aron Ranen's ''Religion In Suburbia''.
====Song Credits====
===Heresy (Blind)===
'''''Running Time: 5:32'''''
This version splices up the bass track and the drums to create a dancier beat (like the "Slate" remix of "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]"). The choruses are much less layered. On June 22, 2011, Joseph Bishara commented on the creation of the remix on his facebook page: "It was a great time - working at Bryan Adams studio in Vancouver with Dave Ogilvie and Anthony Valcic - programmed around the tracks, and we recorded hours of live at the console mixes, later edited into Heresy and Reptile remixes."
==Live==
This song has been played very faithfully to the album version since 1994. However, though it was can be considered a setlist rarity until because it has only been played on the [[Self Destruct Warm-up]] tour (twice), [[Performance 2007]] tour and [[Wave Goodbye Tour]] in 2009.
