npub1ahqj3ek7s7lrt4ygsthymx0j0vqunam8vc6ejhn9qn7037prm0pq83wjwd (npub1ahq…wjwd) I assume, then, that your answer is "yes": you want trials held without oaths (no swearing in), just structured conversation. No perjury penalties.
I dunno. Seems a step back to me.
And the same rule — no oaths — would make weddings merely get-together parties, neither partner making any public commitment.
I do think the hope for a social rule/norm that no one will ever violate is a vain hope. Of course some will betray their oaths. The problem is not the oath, IMO.
