#DidYouKnow that in Austria, no position in the civil service, or judiciary, or the military, or even the cabinet requires an oath of office?
Instead, you are required to make a legally binding affirmation ("Gelöbnis"), which however does not require the invocation of any supreme being. The law, where it prescribes the wording of the affirmation, only says that "the addition of a religious formula is permitted." So you can add "so help me god" or likewise, but you never have to.
