Would this verse be allowed?

On Adult Swim, there is a little show called Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell. It's a solid show, and I've been wanting to make profiles for the verse for a while now; problem is, it might break site rules on religion.

The show itself, as the name would imply, takes place in Hell, specifically the Abrahamic Hell from the Bible. While it is a fictional show representing the lives of demons in a comedic fashion, it is very closely tied to Christianity, to the point where it might as well be dancing on the line of "Is it even a fictional representation of Hell anymore?"
 
If is a parody, why not?

Besides, not to sound controversial, but there's no "true" representation of Hell, even the Divine Comedy is still a work of fiction after all, despite being made with the teachings of the Church as the base.
 
Here are all rules related to the topic:
Do not create profiles for deities and other figures from religions with a significant quantity of modern day followers. This includes those described in Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. Featuring these types of profiles is certain to upset large groups of people.
  • In addition, even dead religions, ones with an incredibly small amount of current followers, such as the Aesir faith, and ones for which the followers are agnostic, such as Shintoism, frequently contain myths and interpretations that are radically different and contradictory to each other, which makes it near impossible to pattern coherent information into statistical profile pages. As such, we only make exceptions for mythologies that are based on specific fictional works separate from any mainstream religion, such as Journey to the West and the Shanmeh, that can provide reasonably high coherence and accuracy for our purposes, and lessen the offence to religious believers.
The setting should be entirely fictional in nature, with no true bearing over the real world
According to your description, it would be an "almost-accurate-representation of hell and christianity using fictional components and comedic effects". To stay within the guidelines and avoid potential issues, you could consider focusing on the fictional elements and characters within the show rather than explicitly referencing religious aspects.

Also, this is simply my suggestion above, I don't have any superiority over your own decision at the end. I simply wanted to give a helpful input (with the rules that is related to the topic)
