Do you think Revelations is enigmatic?

I've read several works by Chilton, Sproul, Russel, Gentry, and Demar. They don't all agree on the story being told in Revelation. Who's going to Hell? Which Preterist's work is 100% accurate? Preterism is essentially eschatological Monday night quarterbacking. And nearly every Preterst I've met has a different angle, just like the Futurists I've met.

I contend that it is about tampering with the text. Yes, translations have to reward things to get the meaning of the original text. But the original Greek text wasn't to be tampered with.
