If it is as simple as you have mention many would have dropped the Bible and Christianity since Bible is the basis. The atrocities, sex, violence is a record of what happened and what God despises too!
If you want something easy, lovey dovey and cosy, might I suggest writing of Hans Christian Anderson. Or is that too violent too.
