California Dem laments presence of 'God' in congressional oaths: 'It's just preposterous'
Excerpt: A congressional Democrat on Sunday said it was "preposterous" that witnesses are still instructed to say "so help me God" in their oaths before testifying before Congress -- after his Democratic-led committee attempted to remove the God reference from its oathsearlier this year. California Democratic Rep. Jared Huffman made the comments on The Freedom From Religion Foundation’s “Freethought Matters” program, which bills itself on its website as "an antidote to religion on the airwaves and Sunday morning sermonizing."
