Helgi Hseasson was an Icelandic carpenter, atheist and socialist. In 1962, he started a campaign to get his baptismal covenant annulled. At first he sought recourse from bishop Sigurbjrn Einarsson who told him that the baptismal covenant was permanent and could not be annulled. Helgi then contacted several other clergymen without getting results to his liking. He then sought legal recourse, pursuing the case through the Icelandic court system and finally appealing to the European Court of Human Rights, all without success. At this point Helgi believed that the only course remaining open to him was direct action. On October 16, 1966, he attended service at the Reykjavk Cathedral. Helgi went to the altar as if to receive communion but instead of consuming the wine and the bread he threw both items into a trash bag and then addressed the congregation, declaring his baptismal covenant annulled and protesting the hatred of humanity which is the basis of the accursed Christian religion.
