I mean, I get that folks are allowed to choose. But you never hear that. It's always "swearing on the Bible" in court, in oath-taking, when it's discussed publicly.
If we need to swear on something, rather than just giving our word, what does that mean for our ability to keep other promises, ones not made on pieces of paper and ink?
