Can Congressman elect Keith Ellison take his oath on Koran?
Keith Ellison from Minnesota whose election to the House will make him the first Muslim in Congress, plans to take his oath of office on Islam's holy book, the Koran,
He is not not be the first member of Congress to forgo a Bible. Rep. Debbie Schultz (D-Fla.) took her oath in 2005 on a Tanakh, the Hebrew Bible. In 1825, John Quincy Adams took the presidential oath using a law volume instead of a Bible, and in 1853, Franklin Pierce affirmed the oath rather than swearing it.
Congressman-elect Ellison has been criticized for his decision and some have said he should not be allowed to take his oath on the Koran.
What are your thoughts?
Two of the "bigots" (shell answer man's term, not mine) are conservative talk show host Dennis Prager and Tim Wildmon of The American Family Association in Tupelo, Miss.
i can't believe they are making a big deal of this. it's common sense if a person is a muslim he swear the oath on the Quran, otherwise you are forcing him to change his believes or give a fake oath. by swearing on the Quran it's a sign of honestly and he will really submit to the oath.
