FILE - In this Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2021 file photo, Joe Biden is sworn in as the 46th president of the United States by Chief Justice John Roberts as Jill Biden holds the Bible during the 59th Presidential Inauguration at the U.S. Capitol in Washington. On Friday, Jan. 29, 2021, The Associated Press reported on stories circulating online incorrectly asserting Biden swore on a “Masonic/Illuminati” Bible during his inauguration. It is a Douay-Rheims Bible, an English translation of a Latin Bible, which has been in the Biden family since the 1890s. Robert Miller, professor of biblical studies at The Catholic University of America, says, “Nothing even vaguely Masonic would have been anywhere near these Bibles. … Same thing for the ‘Illuminati,’ to the extent that such a thing existed: repeatedly condemned by the Popes and certainly coming nowhere into contact with Catholic Bibles.” (AP Photo/Andrew Harnik)
