What is the difference between an oath and an affirmation?
An oath is a solemn pledge, often involving an appeal to God or a sacred entity. It is used when the person making the statement believes in a supreme being or has religious beliefs.

An affirmation, on the other hand, is a solemn pledge made without invoking a divine entity or religion. It is typically used by individuals who do not hold religious beliefs or prefer a non-religious approach to making a promise or commitment.
