  • What influences your values about issues relating to your life?

The things that influence my issues relating to my life would definatley be my religion, family, friends and the way i have been brought up, to be the person that I am.

  • Do you ever compare images/values presented by the media to those of the bible? If so why? If not why not?

  • Has this project challenged you to examine your values? Why / Why not

This project hasn’t really made me examine my values because the social justice issue that im researching doesnt really apply to me
