JB>Boy ?  Name calling now ?

Whatever.

JB>SK>Here is what _I_ swore to (and the "So help me God"
part is but a 
JB>SK>request for help for one's OWN higher power (if they have one),
JB>SK>not a promise. And it's considered "secular" just as A.A. is
JB>SK>considered  secular when speaking of a "higher power".)

JB>The military isn't A.A. 

And you aren't my judge.

I took the silly ass "god shit" as just that.

Or are you saying that the Constitution is wrong?

JB>SK>"I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and
JB>SK>defend  the Constitution of the United States against all enemies,
JB>SK>foreign and  domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance
JB>SK>to the same; and  that I will obey the orders of the President of
JB>SK>the United States and  the orders of the officers appointed over
JB>SK>me, according to regulations  and the Uniform Code of Military
JB>SK>Justice. So help me God." (Title 10, US  Code; Act of 5 May 1960
JB>SK>replacing the wording first adopted in 1789,  with amendment
JB>SK>effective 5 October 1962).

JB>Which part of "So help me God" alludes you ? 

No part nor parcel, pal.

JB>English is a tough language.

Not forme. I even understand intent.

BTW, have you proven a negative lately?
