Just read shags thread and got me thinking. Could you swear on the bible in court to tell the truth and lie for anyone (ie family, friends) ?

No.

Although I don't consider myself a devoutly religious person anymore.

If I swore on the bible, I could not tell a lie, for anyone, or anything.

It depends.

The Bible would have no bearing on my reasons to lie for someone in court.

I'm scared of prison so I wouldn't want to ever be in that position!

The bible would be irrelevant but lying in court is something I couldn’t do. I would be too scared of getting caught out. No I couldn’t do it.

If they were in court, and I truly believed them innocent, then I wouldn't have to lie.

My eldest son stole sweets from a shop when he was 6, put upto it by a friends older brother.

He was marched back into the shop, apologised & handed over his pocket money.

I didn't raise my children to commit crimes, of any nature

When I did jury service you chose whether to swear on the bible or just do an oathy thing, I did the oathy thing.

I felt if I was committing to the bibley one it was false for me as I don't believe in it, not that I would have tried to twist anything anyway regardless.

It's more about having a personal conscience than anything else.

That would depend on whether I believe them to be completed innocent or not, I don’t think I could live with myself, if I lied to protect someone that had done something that wrong and another person suffered in their place that was innocent..

I suppose, it would depend on the crime.

Something minor, trivial, I could refuse to answer, no comment, for something minor.

But a biggy, an awful crime. No. Never.

My family and friends mean more to me than a book used to control the masses and a law that doesn't apply to everyone equally.

I'd lie, steal and cheat to protect my immideate family, especially my son's. Some friends may as well be blood relatives and I'd protect them from the long arm of the law if I didn't think the crime was that bad.

On the whole I'm relatively open and honest, but I will break that behaviour to protect the ones I love, if need be.

It's not like I have much respect for the law or the book anyway.

This is where doughnut and I differ (which isn’t often) he said he would do anything to protect his kids if they were in trouble and if that meant he took the blame for them he would, however I believe that if my kids did something that they ended up in court for, I would let them get punished for their crimes (I mean if it was clear as day they did whatever they were in court for) because they need to learn from their mistakes, so no, I wouldn’t swear on the bible for anyone if I knew they were guilty.

No matter how much I loved the person being accused, I just couldn't lie on oath. It's not a natural thing for me to do to as I was brought up to be an honest person and always tell the truth. I would be too scared to commit perjury and cause a miscarriage of justice.

No.

Not only that, but it is not a requirement of the courts.

Other options are available.

You would not expect a Muslim t swear on the Bible would you. No, they are able to take an oath on the Koram.

As for Atheists, such as myself, or anyone else not wishing to swear on the bible, a general statement of affirmation is all that is required.
