Are you being deliberately obtuse? There are a lot of rich religious people who, because of their religion, are used to giving money to good causes. They used to build cathedrals; now it's megachurches. They founded universities and fund endowments like the one that provides the Templeton Prize. If time is an issue at all, it may be because they think of eternity, while the atheist has only a much more limited timespan and tends to be a short-term thinker.
