The Father of Lies

Let your yes be yes and your no be no,” says Jesus, commanding his disciples never to swear. “Everything else comes from the evil one.”

Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales

indeed

i wonder about court ...do they still make one put their hand on the bible and swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

What if a non believer is asked?
what if its continued....knowing Jesus' words
what if its discontinued.....to remove religious significance?
