 Cuz church and state are still not separated 

 This is a good point  

 Because English law was built around Jesus' teachings since King Alfred. Even if you consider the bible fiction it teaches basic western morality. 

 Exactly 

 Where did the Bible come from? (humans wrote it) 

 The holy texts in all various religions are a distillation of humanity. The stories are very similar in all the books and are generally well battle tested.  

 I'm just speaking from a western European and North American point of view. Where the relegion has been Christianity for the past thousand years (before state separated from relegion)  I still think Christianity echoes through the core laws of  English law.

But back to the OG point; it doesn't make sense to swear on a belief or bible you don't hold. 

 I don't think it matters who wrote it, as long as the morals are true, tested and immutable. The Bible was once something everyone agreed on;  unifying the culture of a nation. The Bible had a lot of power because everyone agreed with it and acted within it's moral rule sets. In turn, people follow basic law. ...Just like the bitcoin protocol does with it's immutable code. 

 I think it matters insofar as if the humans had the morals to write the Bible then they also have the morals without it. 

People don’t need religion to be good people 

 Where does it say print cash, have fun? 

 You’re a quasi intellectual 

 Or a fictional intellectual

 Maybe we swear on the #bitcoin protocol? 🤯

 

 Because context.  ;) 

 what a faggot 

 In an American court room you can use the religious text of your choosing or opt out of a book altogether. Unclear if you will get the exact same trial result in every case, though. 

 To pretend. We live in a bubble of lies where we have been conditioned since birth to pretend we live in a lawful world.  laws that only apply to you and me... to pretend.
