Wow, great post. The above results actually shock me that people are unwilling to help financially, so I have to commend you for your attitude, eventhough I disagree with your life views.
I feel that I've been blessed by God with aptitude and a desire to excel in whatever I do. I as well skipped some meals while working 2 jobs to get through college and nevertheless tithed 10+% since my first paycheck. This past year is the first that my wife and I both worked full-time the entire year. As our income increases our percentage tithe also has. I think we're around 24% (gross) that we've given to charities and (directly opposed by the ACLU) christian outreaches.
So, eventhough we obviously stand on opposing sides concerning politics/religion, I commend you for your generosity and your attitude.
