I do think Biden is a good example of someone who went to Washington to do good, and didn't change to doing well. He's not a lobbyist, he's not out to make money, he's just an average guy who lost his family and rebuilt a life.
When you give money to your church, that is considered a charitable donation. You can write that off. That would appear on his taxes. He must not have given any money to his church, unless he occasionally threw a $10 or $20 bill into the tithe basket. Most people who are going to put more than $5 in the tithe basket, will use a check rather than cash, so that they can get the deduction on their taxes.
