A slight change of subject, but this thread has turned to something I've been thinking about lately, about swearing oaths and making affirmations -



Is this not an oath? A pledge made before Divine Providence? If the question is inappropriate, please disregard or delete it.

Those 56 Signors are sometimes thought of as Party to the (Constitution) Contract. So you are right on topic; thanks!

That is interesting. There is probably something in the Jury Summons process where the jury commissioner grabbed that kind of jurisdiction?

It has to be a little more then that because I have read on the net that there has been fines and jail for some witness on the court stand that refused the oath.
They get contempt.
But I think that charged is stretched to the assumption that "you are employed by the government."

Perjury. In England, perjury, as being a sin, was originally a matter of ecclesiastical cognisance.

Had a hunch and found that.

Jesus warns us all explicitly never to swear and in most courts, maybe all, the alternative of affirming is granted but that process is only admissible before a sworn in official. The surface reasoning behind swearing is that one must be subject to the judge for perjury. Thinking that through though, that submission is saying, I am like you now. I join your judiciary/lodge.

So the Fallen Angels (Azazel and company) made a religious pact or formed a secret society? Its simple enough that if someone makes a false statement on a form that he deposit a sum in money and forfeit it should the false statement give rise to injury or loss. Prepayment vs postpayment?
