A "personal promise" Bible?

Recently someone sent me a link to this: the Personal Promise Bible! As it says on the front page, it offers to print a customized Bible that "inserts YOUR name in more than 7000 key scriptures throughout the bible." I decided to test it out, so I just chose any random ol' name and tried the demo verse they offer:
By which He has granted to Judas Iscariot His precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these Judas Iscariot may become a partaker of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
2 Peter 1:4
Hmm...I sense a glitch in the Matrix...
