We all know someone who has said “I swear on my (loved one)’s life I’m not lying.” Or we may have said this ourselves at one point.

People say it’s just words, people lie under oath, if they’re lying about something they don’t care either way and are just trying to get away with it.

Others say it’s always something they believe because they “wouldn’t risk something happening to the person they mentioned”

Poll question: are you more inclined to believe someone who swears on someone’s life?

Bonus: do you think it’s right to swear on another person’s life, regardless of whether you’re telling the truth or not?
