Does this mean the people who called God as a witness to their honesty, if later found guilty are prepared to accept Sharia punishment instead of secular punishment?...

I am not all that religious, so perhaps I would be better off affirming the commitment to act in a particular way.<br /><br />That was more the point, rather than a comment on the system of swearing oaths of office.Rob Baitonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05122219639222126602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33513300642419002.post-17203531395919504542009-11-09T22:46:02.940+07:002009-11-09T22:46:02.940+07:00Rob,

I think that in other countries God is also mention in similar ceremonyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05949573308782388848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33513300642419002.post-70718597195611436132009-11-09T17:37:00.395+07:002009-11-09T17:37:00.395+07:00Harry...

For those that believe in God, then to utter demi Allah or demi Tuhan might be the icing on the cake so to speak with respect to truth.<br /><br />However, it is not all that different is it from people wanting to perform the sumpah pocong, is it? It was not all that long ago the Prita Mulyasari was offering in court to perform a sumpah pocong with a view to convincing the court that she did not have the intent to defame RS Omni International when she sent the email.<br /><br />(I wonder if Roy Suryo would do a sumpah pocong to prove that he is a telematics expert? :D)Rob Baitonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05122219639222126602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33513300642419002.post-2697635178225269532009-11-08T17:32:38.515+07:002009-11-08T17:32:38.515+07:00Colson,
