Subject: RE: BS: Atheists: No 'so help me God'
I was the first or second to vote in the advanced poll in my polling station in the last three federal elections. Took Mum along. At the first of those, in a Baptist church, my mum noticed a Bible on the administer's desk. She asked and was told it was to swear upon if you didn't have the proper paperwork and wanted to vote.

That church was not a polling station in the subsequent elections, by Canadian Law. Ya don't mess with the law and ya don't mess with Mum.

Yes, SRS.... tough indeed!
