This is how you have to do it in Germany.
Holy shit that is intense.

It's a stupid bureaucratic thing - they had to get somebody from the office next door in to 'witness' me declaring I want to be an atheist. So silly but it felt great - I did that in my early 20s and I still vividly remember it. Also laughed a lot at the local Protestant church sending me letters afterwards pretending to care about me being a member of the community when they've never even seen me before.
Obviously did it because I don't believe in religion and it felt really good to set up a regular donation to a cat shelter to give that money to a better cause.
