BIBLE NEWS: Firemen sworn in on iPad Bible

We study the Bible for its content, but it is also used as a ceremonial object.  For instance, it is commonly used in swearing-in ceremonies.  And as the Bible goes online, we're seeing electronic bibles used in new and different ways.  Did you think you'd see the day when someone was sworn in on an iPad?

According to a local NBC news channel, when the firemen showed up for the swearing in ceremony, they discovered that no one brought along a physical copy of the Bible. A quick-thinking member of the group took out an iPad and downloaded the app.
