Swear Not At All by Jeremy Bentham presents a comprehensive exposition on the superfluity and detrimental effects of oath-taking. Bentham meticulously argues against the necessity of oaths, highlighting their potential for misuse and their incompatibility with Christian principles. He offers a detailed analysis of parliamentary acknowledgments of the pointlessness of oaths, and provides solid evidence demonstrating the clear and undeniable inadmissibility of sworn testimony. Bentham delves into the historical and ethical dimensions of oaths, questioning their validity in legal and societal contexts. This work stands as a significant contribution to legal philosophy and ethical discourse, challenging conventional practices and advocating for a more rational approach to truth and testimony.
