Had you heard about this drive to have the Koran used in N.C. for swearing in Muslims?

CAIR won't be satisfied until Sharia is the law of the land and we're all either Islamists or dead. IMO.

Ah, scuze mem but that dirty book contains an explicit permission to lie to non-believers, so any oath taken on it would be pointless.

I kind of agree. If you can use the Bible, you should be allowed to use whatever holy book you desire.

Those who do not wish to take an oath using the Bible may make an "affirmation."

Move along, pipsqueaks.

Isn't sort of 'amusing' that a book that orders its followers to lie in order to deceive unbelievers, is supposed to be used as proof that people using it are telling the truth?

Does that mean the bailiffs will have to wear gloves and use both hands?

What about the part that says they can lie if it furthers the aims of Islam. (not exactly in those words, but means the same)

The whole idea of swearing with the hand on the Bible was to affirm you are telling the truth to God. People understood people can (and do) lie to each other, but when you swear to God to tell the truth, God would know if you are lying and thereby your immortal soul would be at risk.

One would think the 'slime would understand the importance of not lying to God.

Of course, we should let them use their toliet-wrap when they allow Christians to use the Bible in 'slime countries.

Fair is fair.

Muslims can swear on a Koran or on a Bible or on their mother's grave, it doesn't make a difference. They will lie anyway.

The Islamo-facsists are learning from the fringe left to use our freedoms to destroy us.

The Koran teaches its adherents to lie to save the faith. If this is allowed, there will still be no prayer in schools for infidels, but the follwers of Allah will be accommodated..

You gotta be kidding me. Any elected official who swears upon a Koran should be impeached and imprisoned the very next nansecond.

Many of you guys are crazy. Letting Muslims into America is a presciption for endless war. Look at the Middle East for G--'s sake.

If America ceases to be a Judeo-Christian nation, you can to the Bill of Rights in the trash cause it is incompatable with Islam and the Koran.

Just my humble opinion..........
