| If you could travel back in time to any period, and meet any person who is historically significant, who would you want to meet and why? |
Stevie Nicks, singer for Fleetwood Mac. Because the way she has approached her life. The lyrics of some of her songs really affected me. |
| Out of all the problems that we are facing in our world today, what do you consider is our biggest problem and how do you think we can solve this problem? |
How much we waste. We have so many homeless and poor children and we just waste all of our resources. |
| Do you think it is possible that you and I were put here on this earth for some kind of purpose? If so, what do you think that was? If not, why do you think so? |
I don’t know if we were put here for a purpose, but meeting people and becoming part of their lives and sharing resources and having companionship really matters. |
| We live in a world that tends to believe, now more than ever, that all religions are equal and no one religion is better than another. In your opinion does it matter what someone believes? If not, why not, if so, why so? |
In our society all religions are not united and they are not equal. Like in regards the Bible, the Quran and the Torah they just all seem to be different. |
| All religions have different beliefs about the afterlife but many seem to indicate that we go to a better place, if we do the right things in this life. What do you personally believe about the afterlife and what do you think we need to do in this life in order to get to this better place in the next life? |
I am not sure about the afterlife, but if I do what I think and feel is right, then I will die knowing I did what I could . |
| If you do not believe there is life after this life is over, where do you think we came from? |
Not sure where we came from. Have so many questions that I don’t seem to be able to come to an answer. |
| If you do not believe there is life after this life is over, why is it difficult for us to avoid believing in non-material things like truth, love, beauty, goodness, etc…? |
It would be very miserable and people need to do what they need to do in order to believe that life is meaningful. |

Egyptian Queen Nefertiti. Also be drawn to Egyptian culture, pyramids-all been intriguing to me since high school. |
| Out of all the problems that we are facing in our world today, what do you consider is our biggest problem and how do you think we can solve this problem? |
Animosity and hate towards others-towards other religions, race, lifestyles-need to accept everyone and do what is right for you and all should be fine. |
| Do you think it is possible that you and I were put here on this earth for some kind of purpose? If so, what do you think that was? If not, why do you think so? |
I would like to think so, but don’t know what that would be. For me most of the time, I don’t think I have a purpose. |
| We live in a world that tends to believe, now more than ever, that all religions are equal and no one religion is better than another. In your opinion does it matter what someone believes? If not, why not, if so, why so? |
What I feel in my heart is fine, but I could be wrong. Others are fine to believe what is in their heart and shouldn’t be judged like it is the end of the world. |
| All religions have different beliefs about the afterlife but many seem to indicate that we go to a better place, if we do the right things in this life. What do you personally believe about the afterlife and what do you think we need to do in this life in order to get to this better place in the next life? |
Not sure. I would like to believe there is a better place and that to get there we need to believe in God and try to be good. |
