J: First of all, do you believe in The Bible?
L: Well, yes I do.
J: Do you believe in God? If not, what do you believe in?
L: I believe in God.
J: What is your general thought about religions?
L: I think every person must have the freedom to believe in what they want to, but some religions do have some features or ways of thinking/acting that I cannot understand.
J: Do you get offended by people who think that your religion is dumb and make no sense?
L: No, I don’t. Everybody has the right for their own opinion.
J: Have you ever faced any problems because of your belief? If yes, what?
L: Not with other people or in every-day life, but I have had problems understanding many horrible things that happen in the world.
J: When you have done something wrong, now or in your childhood, have you ever thought or even worried if God is going to somehow punish you for this sin?
L: I can’t remember one single case, but I haven’t prayed that much these days and I have apologized from God that I haven’t. I have sometimes thought about my own actions and will they affect my entrance to my life in heaven. I haven’t done anything so bad that I would have actually stayed and waited that I would receive a punishment.
J: If you’re about to do something important that you know is against The Bible, do you still do it even though you know it’s wrong or do you leave it? Also, do you generally follow rules mentioned and said in The Bible?
L: I try to follow all of the rules and not break any rules. Of course, I would protect my close ones and kill someone who threatens my loved ones if no other option, even though it’s against The Bible.
J: Do your beliefs have any effect on how your dress or act?
L: No.
J: Have you ever got help from your belief when you’ve been sad, felt guilt or otherwise felt bad?
L: I have searched for God in some moments of my life when I have been in great sorrow.
J: How have your beliefs otherwise helped you go through and understand your life?
L: My belief has created me a strong feeling that has helped me understand many things and help me go through faces in my life which would have been hard to understand/accept without this faith.
J: Have your belief affected your relations with your friends or family? How and why do you think so?
L: No.
J: How does your belief affect the way you think and see of people?
L: I want to be as open and equal to all people of different religions, but in some situations I have noticed that I have had thoughts before-hand and some expectations. In these cases I still want to meet the person, not their religion which they belong to.
J: If you have ever been to a celebration/party/ritual of another religion or belief, have you felt uncomfortable or wrong being their?
L: I have felt like an outsider in some cases but I have not felt too uncomfortable to not stay their. Some traditions or acts have confused me.
