Source B The aim of the project was to investigate the key themes and issues that young people identify with religion. The focus group discussions asked questions about the young people’s own religious identity and faith backgrounds. The following quotes illustrate a range of belief and practice: I do practise […] on a daily basis; what I do is I wake up – as a Muslim I have to pray five times a day, so I’d wake up and then I’d pray and get ready, go to school; after I come back from school, I pray again and, then, when the sun sets, I have to do another prayer and then just before I go to bed, I also do another prayer. (Year 10 male) I’m not really religious, like I don’t pray or anything, but I believe in God. (Year 11 female) I don’t practise, but sometimes I do go to a temple to pray […] mostly on religious festivals and occasions or weddings. (Year 10 female) I don’t like read the Bible every day, but I do go to church, though. I go to church like almost every Sunday. (Year 10 female) In the group discussions, the young people also indicated that their families had a strong influence on whether they were themselves religious or not especially when parents felt strongly about religious upbringing.
