What influences your values about issues relating to your life?
My values about issues relating to my life are influenced by other people and by the media. Like when i feel like running out of home, the media portrays running away as a way to get out of home or get out of punishment, but if i was to run away i would run away from the troubles in my life, i would get a hiding. But another way media influences my values about issues in my life is when celebrities don’t go to church then they sometimes influence my on why should i have to go to church.

Do you ever compare images/values presented by the media to those of the bible? If so why? If not why not?
Yes sometimes like when the media only shows people dying when there is a killing rampage it kinda to me relates to the plagues of which happened in the bible and was killing everyone. Also when i look at the media and celebrities influence me to not go to church, then i remember that i have to go to church because Jesus in the bible says that i should go to Church every Sunday.
Has this project challenged you to examine your values? Why / Why not
In a way this project has taught me to examine my values because, when the media publishes something, they are not always true or factual. Most of the time they portray things differently and they don’t show you what your not interested in. But yes it has taught me to examine my values because next time i view the news or something that the media publishes then i need to look into it before i believe anything.
