    Of course we shouldn’t go into detail, but I disagree with you. The Bible is rated R in the sense that it is not to be taken lightly, and the things in it are real things that happened, and they’re not pretty. No, it’s not literally R in the sense of describing every nook and cranny, but yes it is a tough book. Yet these do not detract from it. It’s Gods word.

    Think about this. It’s the message of how to be saved from a place that if you go there, after a billion years you won’t be any closer to the end than the beginning. And it’s not  separation from God, it’s separation from Gods goodness. He is the burning and consuming fire, the one who is punishing those in hell. But it’s for his glory, and so is the story of how we can trust in him and be saved. It’s for a purpose. Hell  is scary. Hell is R. But the reason salvation is so sweet is because of that fact. So yes, there is a place for nondescript things that make the good that much sweeter. Emphasis on nondescript.
