As a beliver you can deduct tax on your tax declaration for prayers you do, your priest will you hand out a dvotions meter for that.
I would love the to be true - it appeals to my sense of the absurd.

offerings, and I know that quite a few churches expect you to tithe as a member - so that's 10% of your gross income for some of them... do Swiss churches have an offering plate (that they expect you to fill) in addition to income from the church tax? If not, given that the tax is voluntary for individuals, then what's the difference?
