oath (ōth)
n., pl. oaths (ōTHz, ōths).
A solemn, formal declaration or promise to fulfill a pledge, often calling on God, a god, or a sacred object as witness.
The words or formula of such a declaration or promise.
A modest proposal for your consideration:
"By the Seven Hairs of Bruise, I swear......."
I think it works in almost all situations, is non-denominational, and is appropriately solemn.
All feedback welcome.
