Ah, interesting:
For the part above where i mentioned the catholic church takes more than it's supposed to:
It's a SHEKEL, not a shirka or whatever, I'm pretty stupid.

shek·el Audio pronunciation of "shekel" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (shkl)
n.

1.
1. Any of several ancient units of weight, especially a Hebrew unit equal to about a half ounce.
2. A gold or silver coin equal in weight to one of these units, especially the chief silver coin of the ancient Hebrews.

Exodus 30:15
The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.

That's hilarious to me. More unreligious religion(even though it's not really relevant unless you're being really dogmatic and literal; but that's what catholicism is known for).
