Reflective Journal 5
What influences your values about issues relating to your life?
Well there any many things that influence me about issues relating to my life, but one of the big ones is the media. Whenever i am unsure of a story or want to know more information, most of time i watch the news to watch what happens and to get a better understanding. Today people believe everything they hear and especially it is on the news. The media has a special ways of making peoples views on different types of stories and issues.
Do you ever compare images/values presented by the media to those of the bible? If so why? If not why not?
No i dont compare images of jesus to the media but sometimes i do compare values. I dont actually look at thebible and compare the values but i remember what the bible says and compare them in my head, not always but whenever it is relating to religion in some way.
Has this project challenged you to examine your values? Why / Why not
Well in some cases yes, because there have been different social justice issues that i have researched and many of them relate to indivdidual opinion an what we think. So i have been able to examine myself in some issues to see if something is right or wrong or if i agree to what is been said or shown.
