ANSWER THIS QUESTION

People swear on the Bible and lie, of course.. The people that make you swear on it think that... that will stop them from wanting to spend the rest of life in Prison :l

people in general lie in court all the time, to get their asses outta jail

EDIT:
why is it that whenever i post in a thread, it always dies?

yeah i think you're right

If I ever have the opportunity to do something like this I'll inform the judge that my swearing on the Bible is meaningless.

Their would honestly be no point in saying that. Because if you don't say anything.. he'll somewhat think you're telling the truth; if you tell him it's meaningless.. then he knows you're going to lie and not give a flying shit.
Sooo..

If I tell him it's meaningless, I'll be telling the truth, making him trust me for telling the truth in the first instance of court. :|

Fuck your logic. I got my own.

After you tell the truth, you will be able to lie after that.
My logic win..

I will be able to lie after the telling of the truth that was my informing upon the Judge of my untrustworthiness, proving my trustworthiness guaranteeing my lies to be believed.
