You have to swear to God: "I, A. B., do solemnly swear, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and will support the constitution thereof. So help me God."
Nobody is going to ask you if you believe in a God you just swore by.

I could care less if someone swore allegiance to their belly lint as long as they hold up the laws and constitution of the people they were elected to represent.
