A few months ago I read this book on Buffett, so I certainly admire his philanthropy and hold him up as a great example of being "good without god."
That said, differentiating between a $30m philanthropic gift - which university and other charitable endowments receive with at least some regularity - and the largest single philanthropic donation in history is not pedantic if you're going to write about philanthropy.
Though I'll add, my comment does read like a direct note to the author it rather than an emphasis for the readers. I didn't realize you were also the author, so you may just be responding to my tone thinking I was trying to bust you because I get such a thrill from it. I don't.
To show no hard feelings, I'll point out that I think you missed another gem: Chuck Feeney, who has given more than $3.5b away (most of it anonymously). I don't have a direct source on his not having religion, but seem to recall it from The Billionaire Who Wasn't.
