"So Help Me NOT"

[Brian37]

Now, we already have a thread about the FBI hearing, the following video IS that full hearing, BUT that is NOT why I am posting it. So please, this is about what the oath of office is and swearing for testimony is. 

At 20 minutes and 12 seconds in there is his swearing in in front of the congressional hearing. NOTICE what is missing from it? My point to the general public is that the "So Help Me God" part is bullshit superfluous crap, that is merely ceremonial and NOT required by the Constitution. Nobody, is forced, by the constitution to say "so help me God"..... 

Most here already know this, this is for any passer by and or new theist or even our occasional troll. And even for our stubborn long time theists in denial of the secular nature of our government.

Good lord! Can you even be properly sworn in without an official incantation appealing to the god almighty?

Our right wing WOULD mandate it if they had the power, but hypocritically cant see that type of mindset is exactly what leads to the theocracies of the middle east.
