It did not cost him a dime to believe in God, huh? I've heard this many times from Christians. I like to use this to rebut that idiotic statement. This is a Christian mega-church near my home. It is located in Longwood, Florida.

It was recently built, to the tune of about 500 million dimes (about 50 million dollars). Every week this church takes in over $200,000 in tithes and offerings. Imagine the dent that could be made in worldwide hunger if all Christians would donate to food banks instead of churches.
