The Apostate

We know why Martin Luther affixed his note to the church door, but we don't know why our hero here is so adamant to have his baptismal record removed from the registry. Would be nice to know, to give some continuity to the story. The middle of the story seems to be just everyday happenings, except for his mother's chiding about how his apostasy would hurt the family name. In the final analysis, our hero achieves his objective, but in a rather crude way. I guess he deserves a BRAVO for that...
