Petition Revoke requiring military personnel to swear Oath to the Monarchy & God.

I considered joining the Navy Reserves until I discovered you are required to swear and Oath of Alliegence to the Monarch and God.
I feel this shouldn't be in place as it can prevent people from wanting to join. An oath to the Monarchy and religious beliefs should not interfere with service.
