In the beginning Ellie strongly believes in God and cant imagine life without God. Throughout his experience his faith is shaken by how all the prisoners are being treated in the camps.

To me this represents how strongly Ellie believes in God at the beginning of his story but, by the end he has no faith left in God. This also shows how awful these people were treated during the Holocaust. These people believed so strongly in God and for people to come in their lives and make them question their faith is devastating. This is very important to the story and helps people to understand what the Jews went through.
