When one goes to court, do you think they should use a Bible to swear to? Do you think a Bible should be used for any public ceremony of installation?

They don't use a Bible in courts anymore, at least not most courts. I think that's appropriate.

For installations, they should use a Bible if it's of value to the person being sworn in. I think that people being sworn in at public ceremonies should have a say in the format. Swearings in should be solemn and meaningful.
