Women priests should be allowed in the Catholic Church Mr Michael | info:npr.org A trustworthy news source. Regularly updated link:npr.org Many links to other reliable websites/pagesi | http://n.pr/jsGVaL ‘Female Priests Defy Catholic Church At The Altar’ | There is an author and although the story is around 12 months old, the NPR website is regularly updated. It is reliable and gives both sides of the story to tell me what is happening with this issue; both the women’s and the church’s. It is free from propaganda although there is definitely a little bias towards taking the women’s side. I would like to know more about the reasons why the church think it is a bad idea for there to be women priests. |

Also, it doesn’t compare anything about this camera with the other camera. So it’s objective. |

The atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were lawful! TV | info:history.com Shows that the site is often updated. | http://www.history.co.uk/explore-history/ww2/atomic-bomb.html | I can’t seem to find the author of the story, but the story seems to be fair. It doesn’t really lean on one side. It doesn’t support the U.S nor Japan. The information tells the facts and lets us decide which side we want to be on, rather than them being biased and defending a side. |
