It depends. If you are the defendant, by all means, leave your imprint on the Bible and swear to tell the truth. Whether you actually tell the truth or not is immaterial. You don't want to give the jury, which statistically is almost 80% Christian, an excuse to hate you regardless of the facts of litigation.
Not let your heart be troubled. People purjure themselves all the time. 80% of purjurers are also Christian and they believe in the text. I suggest you tell the truth under oath because, it's honorable, right, and just. The title of the book under your hand doesn't mean a damn.
Swearing on the Bible is meaningless bullshit, tradition; otherwise, a Christian wouldn't lie in court.
