( The survey )
( The survey )
female, 25, straight, European American, non-denominational Christian
2. Have you always believed in God (Since your childhood, if not then when did you start to believe in God?)
since childhood
YOUR OPINIONS -
. Do you accept abortion?
yes, yes ... I think it is a tragedy, but I don't believe that all issues in life can be neatly wrapped up with a list of dos and don'ts. I think we need to allow for abortion and let women decide their own morality.
4. Do you regularly use alcohol? (= once a week or more)
not quite that often, yes ... I believe God gives us things to enjoy like food,drink, sex, etx. Certainly either can be abused, but that does not mean we should completely deny ourselves what God wanted us to have.
5. Do you accept passive euthanasia?
yes, yes
6. Do you accept active euthanasia?
in a perfect world yes/ in the world in which we live no, yes
7. Do you accept suicide?
I belive it is wrong, but I don't believe suicide = automatic damnation, yes
8. Do you regularly go to chuch? (= once a week or more)
yes, yes
9. Do you accept in vitro fertilisation and artificial insemination?
yes, yes ... but I think that adoption is a more loving option because there are many unwanted children in the world
10. Do you accept sex before the marriage?
yes, yes ... but only in loving and monogamous relationships. I believe that sex was created as an expression of love and intimacy. This can be seen between married and unmarried individuals.
11. Do you accept women priests?
yes, yes
12. Did you accept the cartoons of the Islamic prophet Muhammed?
no, yes
13. Should EU say no to Turkey because the country is islamic?no (not for that reason, but there may be other valid reasons to say no to Turkey .. I'm not aware), yes
ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY (Please answer yes, no or I don't know and tell me why did you answer like that (try to justify your opinnion).
14. Do you accept homosexuality (The Bible doesn't accept homosexuality: If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads. Leviticus 20:13)
yes, yes
The Leviticus passage is part of a code of laws that was inteded for the theocratic nation of Israel thousands of years ago. There are hundreds of laws in that book, just like this one, that have become inapplicable to our lives today.
15. Would you give to homosexuals right to marry (The Bible says that marriage is a bond between a women and a man.)
yes/yes
I believe that it's discrimination and unloving behavior to deny them this right. I do not believe that the Bible or Christianity restricts marriage today to heterosexual couples.
16. Would you give to homosexuals right to adopt? (Some say that a child needs a father and a mother.)
yes, yes
17. Could you be a friend of a person who is same gender as you and is homosexual?
yes (I am), yes
I believe the Bible and Christianity would condemn you for shunning someone in this way, even if homosexuality were wrong.
18. How would you react if your child says that he/she is homosexual?
I'm not a parent, so I can only speculate. I would react with complete support and try to give my child as much love as I could, just as I would with a straight child.
19. Do you feel that God doesn't accept homosexuality and people who are gay?
Absolutely not.
20. Do homosexuals go to hell because of their sexuality?
No. Again, even if homosexual sex were wrong, it would be the act of it that would condemn a person, not a mere orientation.
21. Do you have anything else to say about homosexuality, God, The Bible or about you faith?
Not long ago, the same groups of Christians who are currently discriminating against gays were discriminating against African Americans and preaching against inter-racial marriage. Sadly, people often use their faith to promote hatred.
