Yeah, I seem to recall that the US gives a similar % of income as other countries once you subtract out donations to churches and to universities, which are both a much bigger thing than in other countries.

You're probably thinking of other Western countries. Remember that most Western countries have moral code derived from Christian morals.
What I mean is that if you look at countries with say top 50 GDP, many of them will be much lower than the "other western countries".
