Section 329. Certificates as evidence; affirmation of documents and testimony

(a) Every certificate, assignment, conveyance or other  paper  executed  by  the  superintendent or one of his deputies pursuant to law
  and sealed with the official seal of the department shall be received as
  evidence in any judicial or other proceeding and may be recorded in  the
  proper recording offices.
    (b)  Any  charter, or any certificate or other instrument supplemental
  to or amendatory of the charter, of an insurer filed in  the  office  of
  the  superintendent  and  containing  statements  of  fact  required  or
  permitted by law to be contained  therein,  shall  be  received  in  all
  courts,  public  offices  and official bodies as prima facie evidence of
  such facts and of the execution of such instrument.
    (c) Whenever by the laws of any jurisdiction other  than  this  state,
  any  certificate  by  any  officer in such jurisdiction or a copy of any
  instruments certified  or  exemplified  by  any  such  officer,  may  be
  received  as  prima  facie  evidence  of the incorporation, existence or
  capacity of  any  corporation  incorporated  in  such  jurisdiction,  or
  claiming  so  to  be, such certificate when exemplified, or such copy of
  such instrument when exemplified shall be received in all courts, public
  offices and official bodies of this state, as prima facie evidence  with
  the  same  force  as in such jurisdiction. Such certificate or certified
  copy of such instrument shall be so received, without being exemplified,
  if it is certified by the secretary of state, or official performing the
  equivalent function as to corporate records of such jurisdiction.
    (d) Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter requiring an oath as
  to the proof of a document or the truth of testimony, the  affiant  may,
  if  his  religious beliefs cause him to object to giving an oath, affirm
  the document or his testimony.
