Journal Entry 5
August 13, 2008
1. What influences your values about issues relating to your life?
Some things that influence my values about issues relationg to life would be the people around me, like friends, family or loved ones. I also get influenced by the work of Jesus and how he set an example when he was here on Earth.
2. Do you ever compare images/values presented to the media of those in the bible? if so why? if not why not?
Yes, sometimes i do if it related to a parable that i know in the bible i would reflect back and think about who would be correct or who is setting a better example. Of course the bible is always right but its interesting to see how far off or how close some people can get.
3. Has this project challenged you to examine your values? why/why not?
Yes, this project has surprised me alot and i have definatly learnt to look deeper into something before i judge that scene. One example would be when we did the ‘Think fair share’ activity, we were shown a boy sitting on a couch playing a psp and every one including me asumed that the boy was rich, stubborn, lazy, etc, but the message behind turned out to be comkpletely different and it is amaizing to see how much lies a picture can tell if there is nothing to support it.
