One of the two changes I saw in Elie was his faith for God. In the beginning he was very religious. He was pious until he got to the concentrating camps because that's when God wouldn't show up for him and his people when they were in danger. Elie thought God was going to show up when Sighet was getting taken over by the Nazis. Instead God didn't do anything and this is when Elie began to lose his faith for God and his pious part inside of him.

Elie' faith kept on lowering more and more as time passed on. When he arrived at Buna, it got more intense. He was questioning himself and God while he would also yell at God too.

When a new child comes
Everything seems strange to him.
What, on the ground I have to lie?
Eat black potatoes? No! Not I!
I've got to stay? It's dirty here?
The floor - why, look, it's dirt, I fear!
Am I supposed to sleep on it?
I'll get all dirty!

Here the sound of shouting, cries.
And oh, so many flies.
Everyone knows flies carry disease.
Oooh, something bit me! Wasn't that a bed bug?
Here in Terezin, life is hell.
And when I'll go home again. I can't yet tell.
