    If it was made into a movie in its entirety?

    'went before them and slew thousands'

    'kill all the men, women, children and animals'

    'the song of Solomon'

    'Job on his ash pile'

    etc, etc.

    What rating do you think it would get?

    Would you let your kids watch the movie?

    Considering the violence and sex in it I would rate it either an R or NC17.

    Hard to say...right up there with Peter Pan I suppose or the Never Ending Story.

    The dubs would name it Eyes Wide Shut and forbid anyone to watch it.

    If it were really made into a movie it would be the most violent movie ever produced.

    Nah, you picked two which are light emotionally and have happy endings. The fables in the bible which are responsible for so much death and destruction over the centuries, are heavy, fearful, and full of pain for the most part (where they aren't mindnumbingly boring in the who begets who section). Even the gospels, which supposedly teach love, end in the murder of the man that brought the message. The latter part goes on to denigrate women and advocate shunning of family, etc. Then in Revelations its back to the violence again.

    It would be rated NC17 or whatever used to be X. I wouldn't see it, I reject it.

    If Haille Berry gets to play the girl in Song of Solomon, I'll watch no matter what rating.

    well, i dont know about the bible .............

    but if they made the New World Translation of The Holy Scriptures into a movie, it would be rated "S" for stupid or "I" for idiots

    the Watchtower would rate it "6" for 6,000,000 people cant be wrong.Play in your world, live in our world.

    I remember telling my elder dad that the bible would be an R rating in the movies.

    Didn't go over too well.
