 @3a7d01e7 very true. I wonder if that is even an option to swear an oath without a book.

 @929fcbe7 @3a7d01e7 I bet there are at least some places in the USA where they would not accept anything other than a Bible.

 @9623cada @3a7d01e7 they might try. And I’m sure many people would just to “not cause conflict” so it would really be a battle you would want to fight. But there already is precedent for people of various faiths to use their own religions books or texts.
