I never understood why ppl in Court (US) in movies at least swear on the bible - I thaught U guys had a division of Church and State.

We in certain way do not have that division, yet we dont swear on the bible (since that has nothing to do with law) but we swear on our constitution.

that sounds more reasonable than swearing on the bible

But in America we can't have real seperation of church and state because then the religious nuts would whine.

Yes, and when the government include religious thoughts including god in statements, it makes you wonder... just another religious fanatic or a leader of a great nation?

You can swear on your nutsack, as long as lying afterwords is against thye law it really doesn't matter!

Actually, people used to swear on their nutsack. That's why it's called TESTI-fying. If you lie, off go your TESTI

If they took it literally, it would certainly give someone reason to think twice about lying on the stand if they defined it as a de-testible crime. :Q
