I understand that there are alternative ways to make an oath of truth. One I read went like this:
"Under penalties of perjury, do you swear, declare, or affirm that the testimony you're about to give shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"
Seems solid to me.
Just let your lawyer know that you don't want to swear on a bible or to God and he or she should be able to make alternative arrangements. I am having dinner with my friend the trial lawyer, I will ask him what he does in these cases.
