Last week, several Atlantic City. NJ firefighters took their oaths of office, not on a traditional Bible though, but on a Bible app on an iPad.
According to a Friday report from NBC 40, officials had scheduled a ceremony to promote several Atlantic City Fire Department workers to Battalion Chief and Fire Captain, but upon commencing the proceedings it was noticed that no one had thought to bring a Bible to City Council Chambers.
Luckily, one attendant just happened to have his iPad with him and either had, or downloaded a Bible app to his iPad and pulled it up on the screen. The firefighters then swore their oaths as normal, each placing his hand on the iPad with the Bible app running.
