     Can you tell me how important is each of the following
     in helping you to make decisions about your life.
     Please indicate your answer by stating where you would
     place your feelings on a scale from 1 to 5 as shown on
     this hand card. Consider the first topic. If you think
     the Bible is very important in helping you to make
     decisions about your life, you would place yourself at
     1. If you feel it is not very important in helping you
     to make decisions about your life, then you would
     place yourself at 5. If you feel the Bible is
     "somewhere between these two" in helping you make
     decisions about your life, then you would place
     yourself at 2, 3, or 4. A. The Bible.
