What is the name of this oath?

I Have three different versions of The Hippocratic Oath. Hope they help. I also have stuff on Primum non nocere(First, Do no harm).\n\nPrimum non nocere\nPrimum non nocere is a Latin phrase that means "First, do no harm." The phrase is sometimes recorded as primum nil nocere.\nIt is one of the principal precepts all medical students are taught in medical school. It reminds a physician that he or she must consider the possible harm that any intervention might do. It is most often mentioned when debating use of an intervention with an obvious chance of harm but a less certain chance of benefit.\nSince at least 1860, the phrase has been a hallowed expression for physicians of hope, intention, humility, and recognition that human acts with good intentions may have unwanted consequences.\nThe origin of the phrase is not widely known; contrary to popular belief, the phrase is not in the Hippocratic Oath. However, it is often described as a Latin paraphrase by Galen of a Hippocratic aphorism (despite the fact that Galen also wrote in Greek rather than Latin); yet no specific mention in Galen's writings has been reported. The closest approximation to the phrase that can be found in the Hippocratic Corpus is "to help, or at least to do no harm," taken from Epidemics, Bk. I, Sect. XI.\nAccording to Gonzalo Herranz, Professor of Medical Ethics at the University of Navarre, Primum non nocere was introduced into American and British medical culture by Worthington Hooker in his 1847 book, Physician and Patient. Hooker attributed it to the :Parisian pathologist and clinician Auguste François Chomel (1788–1858), the successor of Läennec in the chair of medical pathology, and the preceptor of Pierre Louis. Apparently, the axiom was part of Chomel's oral teaching. :—"The origin of primum non nocere." British Medical Journal electronic responses and commentary, 1 September 2002.\nHowever, close examination reveals that Hooker did not use the specific expression or the traditional Latin phrase. A detailed investigation of the origins of the aphorism was reported by the clinical pharmacologist Cedric M. Smith in the April issue of the Journal of Clinical Pharmacology. It addresses the questions of the origin and chronology of appearance of the maxim. Rather than being of ancient origin as usually assumed, the specific expression, and its even more unique associated Latin phrase, has been traced back to an attribution to Thomas Sydenham (1624–1689) in a book by T. Inman (1860). The book by Inman, and his attribution, was reviewed by "H.H." in the American Journal of Medical Science in the same year. A prominent American surgeon, L.A. Stimson, used the expression in 1879 and again in 1906 (in the same journal). That it was in common use by the turn of the century is apparent from later mentions, such as by the prominent obstretician J. Whitridge Williams in 1911, as well as detailed discussion of its use in a popular book authored by Dr. Morris Fishbein, the long-time editor of the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1930.\n\n"First, do no harm": Not in the Hippocratic Oath \nIt is a widely held misconception that the familiar dictum "First, do no harm" comes from the Hippocratic Oath, an oath many physicians take when they enter medical practice.\nHowever, the Hippocratic Oath does not and never did contain those words (nor was it actually written by Hippocrates, according to many sources). It expresses a similar idea, but never employs the words "First, do no harm." \nIt is the opinion of many scholars that Hippocrates did, in fact, originate the phrase, but did so in his Epidemics, Bk. I, Sect. XI. One translation reads: "Declare the past, diagnose the present, foretell the future; practice these acts. As to diseases, make a habit of two things — to help, or at least to do no harm."\nThe Greek "First, do no harm" becomes "Pr

The line in question, "one nation under God" was ADDED to the pledge in the Cold War days as an anti-communist stance.  Maybe we should simply change the pledge back to its original wording.\n\n"In 1954, Congress after a campaign by the Knights of Columbus, added the words, 'under God,' to the Pledge. The Pledge was now both a patriotic oath and a public prayer."

1. "I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery..."\n\n          This commandment is to believe in the existence of God and His influence on events in the world, and that the goal of the redemption from Egypt was to become His servants (Rashi).\n\n   2. "Thou shall have no other gods besides Me... Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..."\n\n          This prohibits belief in or worship of any additional deities or fashioning them.\n\n   3. "Thou shall not swear falsely by the name of the LORD..."\n\n          This commandment is to never take the name of God in a vain, pointless or insincere oath (Rashi). This includes four types of prohibited oaths: an oath affirming as true a matter one knows to be false, an oath that affirms the patently obvious, an oath denying the truth of a matter one knows to be true, and an oath to perform an act that is beyond one's capabilities[citation needed].\n\n   4. "Remember [zachor] the Sabbath day and keep it holy" (the version in Deuteronomy reads shamor, "observe")\n\n          The seventh day of the week is termed Shabbat and is holy, just as God ceased creative activity during Creation. The aspect of zachor (remember) is performed by declaring the greatness of the day (kiddush), by having three festive meals and by engaging in Torah study and pleasurable activities. The aspect of shamor is performed by abstraining from the 39 melachot (forbidden categories of activity) on the Shabbat.\n\n   5. "Thou shall honour your father and your mother..."\n\n          The obligation to honor one's parents is an obligation that one owes to God and fulfills this obligation through one's actions towards one's parents.\n\n   6. "Thou shall not murder"\n\n          Killing an innocent human being is a capital sin.\n\n   7. "Thou shall not commit adultery."\n\n          Adultery is defined as cohabitation with a married woman (Rashi).\n\n   8. "Thou shall not steal."\n\n          This is not understood as stealing in the conventional sense, since theft of property is forbidden elsewhere and is not a capital offense. In this context it is be taken as "do not kidnap" (Rashi).\n\n   9. "Thou shall not bear false witness against your neighbor"\n\n          One must not bear false witness in a court of law or other proceeding. Lying is forbidden elsewhere and is not a capital offence.\n\n  10. "Thou shall not covet your neighbor's house..."\n\n          One is forbidden to desire and plan how one may obtain that which God has given to another. Maimonides makes a distinction in codifying the laws between the instruction given here in Exodus (You shall not covet) and that given in Deuteronomy (You shall not desire), according to which one does not violate the Exodus commandment unless there is a physical action associated with the desire, even if this is legally purchasing an envied object.

The Pledge of Allegiance is recited every morning at the start of the school day in schools. The Pledge goes like this:\n\nI pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, for liberty and justice for all. \n\n(woo - that was from memory!)\n\nI have never run into another situation in which the pledge is recited. It's certainly not recited in the workplace. \n\nHere's a bit of trivia for you: The pledge of allegiance was first started in 1893 as part of the festivities that went along with the 1893 World's Fair held in Chicago. The idea was to have all of the country's children recite the pledge at the same time. I guess it just stuck. :)  (I read that in the Devil in the White City by Erik Lawson - a non-fiction book about the 1893 World's Fair - great book, I highly recommend it!)

I think it is prayers of "contrition".  An Act of Contrition is a prayer to express sorrow for sins.  I hope this helps.

I am a cop and in a court of law, you do not swear on a bible, you are actually asked If the testimony you are about to give is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.  You raise you right hand and answer.  Never once do they mention god, or religion.  Well in Louisiana that is.

If you're not christian, you can ask to use a non-christian oath; if you're not religious, you can "affirm" rather than swear; and you won't need to use the bible in either case.\n\nLying under oath is a crime, called perjury.  If convicted, punishment will vary but often involves some prison time.\n\nYour final question is poorly worded. If you mean "If you swear falsely on the bible but you don't actually believe the bible, is that still a criminal offense?" then the answer is yes.  It's the false testimony that's at issue; the prosecutor and judge don't care about your personal belief.

This is a hot topic today, considering the secularist attacks on some of our (U.S.) society's traditional practices...\n\nHowever, I believe most courts will allow you to swear in "...under penalty of perjury" as opposed to "...so help you God."

It was a Hitler salute.  Kind of ironic to find this Q.  I just received my grandfathers prisoner ring from his time during his stay as a prisoner of war in a German concentration camp.  I'm sure it actually has a literal meaning in German but I really hate to hit a wiki-website for the answer.
