The license does not indicate which Bible is to be used

  This is a self-destructive license: prohibition of use for "warfare" and "weapons manufacturing" basically means that the author wants the world to be conquered by whatever bad guy is stronger. At which point it will be impossible for the license to work because there will be no effective rule of law.

  Interesting that weapons manufacturing is prohibited, despite the Bible having no prohibitions against weapons, in fact much the opposite. David, a man after God's own heart, was armed from a young age and used his sling in one-on-one combat despite not being a soldier.

  And in the words of Jesus in Luke 22:36 - Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

  This seems more like a license to govern what this person thinks the Bible says, rather than what it does say.

  "A male must be circumcised in order to enter into this covenant."
