Do you believe in God?

“Nope.”

Bill Shaddox

civil engineering junior

“Sure, gotta have faith in something. When I was a little girl, I was instructed to believe in God. You know, when you’re a little kid, that’s when they get you to believe in something. I go to church sometimes, but not as much as I used to.”

Mireya Pena

business administration sophomore

“Yes. But see, the thing about God is ? I think it’s the name that always brings up the question. I think the way God is presented brings up confusion and makes it controversial.”

Ajani Jackson

undeclared freshman

“Yeah, I totally believe in God. I believe in the Bible. I’ve seen it work in my life. It’s a very spiritual world, obviously. I would ask, ‘Why don’t you believe in God?’ Anyone can have faith in God, but it’s when you put it into practice, that’s when God can work in your life.”

Amy Prouty

liberal studies junior

“Yeah, I’m a reflection of God, of the creator. Mathematically, every cell, every amino acid in our bodies can be found in outer space, in meteorites that come to Earth. So we can derive that I’m the microcosm of the macrocosm.”

Jahsun Olufemi Edmonds

fine arts graduate student

“Yes. ? I know God exists. Sometimes you go through periods when you don’t know, but right now, I do know. I’m Catholic; I go to church every Sunday.”

Amy Laufenberg

psychology junior
