One of the things I do not like about our current income tax system is that you are required to tell the state how much money you give to charity

No need to be so nasty, FRiend...
My point, as you so ably demonstrated, is that how much I give to whom and when is none of your business or anybody else's. I would prefer it if our system of taxation did not require people to turn that information over to the government.
If I had my druthers, I would just eliminate the problem by eliminating the tax deduction for charitable contributions. That way everybody's private business can remain private.
Yes, I have. That and more, and not just relatives.
Nope, no deduction that won't withstand an audit. But then, you store up your real treasures in heaven.
