[edit] Steffi Graf quit the Roman Cathoic church around 1998.

Steffi Graf quit the Roman Cathoic church around 1998. MIght have been for tax reason, but we cannot really tell. From [1] . Brickbats by Charles Oliver:

Tennis player Steffi Graf says she quit the Roman Catholic Church for "personal reasons." But others say that she could have been one of the thousands of Germans who have left their churches to save on taxes. Since the days of the Weimar Republic, Germany has collected a tax from members of organized religion to fund those churches. Only members of unrecognized faiths, such as Islam or Scientology, are exempt. The tax is now 8 percent or 9 percent of a person's income. But those who aren't members of a church don't have to pay, prompting many to leave their churches.
