Benne, Robert, and Gerald McDermott. "Thirteen Bad Arguments for Same-Sex Marriage." Christianity Today os 48.9 (2004): 51-52. Academic Search Premier. 24 Oct. 2007.
This article is heavlily biased by religious and conservative thinking. The authors are mainly attempting to appeal to other conservative thinkers. Also, the authors are attempting to show gay marriage supporters where they are using faulty logic. The authors' main point is that there are no good reasons to support gay marriage. I did not agree with the authors' wiewpoints. I felt as though the authors themselves used some faulty thinking. I will use this source in my paper to help illustrate the conservative viewpoint on gay marriage.

While the article may be biased, I think using it could help your paper by giving you arguments to counter and make the side of the issue you chose to look at stronger.
For the annotated bibiliography as a whole in my opinion you seem to find bias in a lot of your sources. When it comes down to an article unfairly advocating or deminishing one side to an issue, I'm not sure you will get the most out of that source. One of your sources is unbiased and states only facts. Most of them however are for one side or the other, and will provide facts nonetheless, but they will be skewed to fit their particular belief.
Karissa, what about the way the annotation itself is completed? Does John need to do anything about the wording, information he included or should include?
The way the annotation is done is with bias, each article is either for his side which makes it a good article or against his view which he claims it is illogical. The sources that seem to contain the most facts have the least said about them. I think he should be less biased in his annotations, at least until he is noting what he will use the source for.
