The general concept of a census to gather information to help plan for hospital funding, housing, transport policy is fine. But you don't need names for that just the information. I would freely give that information if I knew it was just for that but I am not at all convinced which is why I feel compelled to civil disobedience on this matter.
In the Australian census the question about religion has always been optional and this is iirc because of the Nazi Germany use of this information. Except for the gas bill there are too many parallels with Germany to be comfortable with the rest of the questions either.
Same for the dogs. If the dog or car has to be registered fine. Why does the human need to be registered?
Oh, and by the way, we all know what happened to JC and it wasn't pretty. A perfect example of why not to comply with the authorities. Kill all the first born males and if you survive that get sold out for 7 pieces of silver and die painfully as an accused criminal for preaching 'Love thy Neighbour' against the rules of local version of Department of Homeland Security. What were they thinking?
