It's not so much about the religion itself, but whether you are "active" member of a confession.

If you are, you will pay a "church tax" like 1% of your income. If you are not, you don't have to pay that tax.

So it's more about tax collection and distribution than about anything else.




So in tax terms atheism makes sense?


Yes. It is, I believe, 3% of income tax, i. e. about 1% of income for most people.
