So you think ignorant savages should have been taken right out of the jungle, couldn't read or write, no knowledge of science, civilization, etc, and just be given every right that civilization offers?Forced to say what the founders believed in?Only theocrats want to FORCE people to say an oath to their so-called god.Dems to strike 'so help me God' from oath taken in front of key House committee, draft shows
A key committee in the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives is moving to eliminate the words "so help you God" from the oath administered to witnesses testifying before the panel, as part of a new rules package expected to be approved this week, according to a draft obtained exclusively by Fox News.
The draft shows that the House Committee on Natural Resources would ask witnesses to recite only: "Do you solemnly swear or affirm, under penalty of law, that the testimony that you are about to give is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"
The rules proposal places the words "So help you God" in red brackets, indicating they are slated to be cut. Other rules changes relate to expanding the committee's authority over natural gas in Alaska and fossil-fuel resources.
While many federal oaths include the phrase "So help me God," some -- most notably the presidential oath of office -- do not.
The full committee is set to vote on the new language this week, and the rules would take effect immediately if adopted. Other committees were still in the process of finalizing their rules on Monday.

That's just so much TDS snake snot you're spewing so prolifically, sweetie.
The founders believed that black people were less than human.
The founders believed it was just and right to own another human being.
The founders believed that women were peppery and not worthy of voting.
But then again you probably agree with all those things...
