摘要
证人宣誓制度虽源于宗教信仰,但现代宣誓制度并非一定以宗教信仰为前提;宣誓制度通过一种特有的形式来唤起证人的良知和道义感,以减少其谎言,其功效须借助于宣誓的形式体现出来。我国应当设置多种形式的证人宣誓制度。
Though the swearing of witness at hearing derived from religious faith, the modern system of swearing is not necessarily based on religious belief. By arousing the conscience and the awareness of justice and morality of the witness, such a system aims at reducing falsehood via a special way, i.e., to swear. It is suggested that a multiway system of swearing be set up in this country.
