I was into a rabbit hole questioning me about God’s existence, debating myself and looking for different opinions of different people, when, sadly, I found that the bible is copyrighted.

You can find the licenses nearly at the bottom. https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/es/Hebreos 11%3A6

It’s was sad, because it make me stop questioning me about the existence of god, everything started because I said to me “if god exists, then faith is useless, we need the inexistence of god to have faith”, but that, makes me feel less faith

    Is there anything to prevent me from calling something a translation of the bible, but really it’s just the story of how I think my dog sees me mixed with the plot of fight club?

      No. Well, not in the US. Some country somewhere probably has blasphemy law. Not unless you get really confusingly-similar to some trademarked Bible translation, enough that there was risk of confusion. And that’d be trademark law, not copyright.

      EDIT: Well, okay. Maybe truth-in-advertising law. Like, if you actively misled buyers to the point that they thought that they were getting something totally different.

      If you’re selling it for money and it’s not clear how inaccurate of a translation it is, that could be fraud.
