[quote] [b]Gideon said:[/b] Basically taking an oath with a hand placed on a Bible suggests that the official is going to uphold the duties of the oath in the scrutiny of that Bible? So if that is true I can understand why officials would be edgy about letting someone use another book, if they want the official to be held accountable to the laws in the first book. [/quote] Fortunately for all of us, the laws in the "first book" have nothing to do with the laws we live by, and nothing to do with the office taken by the public officials. If we are going to have elected officials swear on anything, it should be a copy of the constitution. Not a religious book.
