This from my favorite satirical online newspaper - the onion. But sometimes it's all too true.
CHARLESTON, SC—Churchgoer Brad Thaden, 48, reportedly tipped God a little something extra Sunday, claiming that the Almighty had done a better job than usual that week, especially with the weather and his children's behavior.
"Hey Big Guy, here's a five-spot for ya," Thaden silently prayed while placing the bill in the church collection plate. "If you keep it up, and make sure Mom doesn't have one of her spells at dinner on Wednesday, there's more where that came from."
According to God, five dollars is "basically nothing" after He tips out the the priest, the pope, the altar boys, and the Holy Spirit.

I guess it was informed by gratitude rather than manipulation. Well, kind of... It's hard to tip someone for something before you've received anything.
Guess I'm just trying to enter the psyche of Brad Thaden. Clearly he acknowledges that every good and perfect gift comes from Him. Or something...trailing off...
