makes sense to me to have a muslim swear the quaran, having them swear on the Bible does not instill me with as much hope oof their being truthful than the use of the quoran. In fact we should extend this to other faiths
Jewish - sweart on the Torah
Mormon - Book of Mormon
Hindu - Bahgvad Gita
Atheist - The Basic Writings of Bertrand Russell (?)
etc.
etc.
Please see Post 10.
Hey Reilly. You have the right answer. I won't go near a mosque; I have no known Moslem friends; I sometimes curse Islam; but if this is their assurance of telling the truth (if that is possible), then it is the way to go. I suspect it is already permissible most places to affirm the telling of truth without swearing and without the left hand resting on a book. An alternative book seems a logical extension of that practice.
Don't forget Dianetics!
It's not the swearing on the Bible (or any other religious text) that requires one to be truthful, and in Georgia witnesses don't swear on a Bible at all. It's the law of the land that requires them to be truthful ... ie. perjury.
You're right, Ignatius. And what about the satanists? We have to procure satanic writings for them? Where does it end???
