She is a believer indeed, but in a peculiar fashion. Although I have not had a proper debate with her about beliefs, I've tested her ideas a bit and it seems she sort of does it because it satifies certain psychological needs, giving her balance, more than as a strong and conscious decision. She didn't disagree with the few arguments I shared, and I felt I could really convince her given the opportunity.
But she seemed a bit fragile (like the Se PoLR aspects I mentioned) and as in general I had the impression she's a good person, I chose not to push too much. I myself was a believer in my childhood before becoming atheist, and I understand why some people need it, even if I see it as wrong (among other things). In a debate I could become tactless and I judged it uneccessary this time.
