An Idea for a Reality TV Show I Support and I'd Never Miss

A dozen fundamentalist Christians are taken to an island, rural area, walled in, whatever and forced live under Biblical Law.
Wonder how long they'd last?

Ok, a month, tops.

Then they'd have a "Biblical" tribal war.

As Biblical law would be quite literally illegal to implement in pretty much the civilized world.

I don't think I could watch a show with rape, beatings, segregation and torture. Then again since reality shows are fake if it was actors trying to show what Biblical law was like it could be controversial for those reasons.
