    Ang,

    I couldn't believe that! His attitude was one of complete arrogance, BTW...not a lick of humility or any sort of attempt to answer the question directly.

    I only caught the end ... I'll have to wait until they post the entire broadcast. Those that saw the entire thing, what did you think?

    The program was great! It nailed the bOrg harder than Dateline did!

    Well I wouldnt want to be going out on the work next week!

    It was VERY powerful and well researched

    An absolutely brilliant piece of work. Probably more effective than Dateline and hopefully more JWs will realize what sort of organization they are propping up. Many thanks to the BBC and all who participated in the effort.

    I'm thrilled that this issue received the coverage it did here in the States, but I only wish the Dateline expose had been this hard hitting and straightforward. Sad to say, most of the people here in America will never see this.

    WOW that was VERY POWERFUL she was one hard hitting reporter I like her!!!

    I can't belive they were in teh DC like that ahha ohh man.

    I didn't get to see all of it, my connection had to keep buffering, but what I gathered was great. I loved her phone call by the gate of the KH I was waiting for her to say 'you are the weakest link, goodbye'

    I would just like to give a standing ovation to Holly and Heather!!! How they can do that I'll never know, the strength and determination wow, it's awe inspiring, and to see Holly crawl back down there I'll never know how she did that!!! My hat is off to you two and they're both such beautiful young woman who have survived.

    TAKE THAT WATCHTOWER!!!

    Internet links:

    Jehovah's Witnesses discussion forum I noticed this link on the BBC Panorama website. I enjoyed the show too. Ted Jaracz in the arrogant flesh. I think the GB is getting a little testy and worried. He certainly lacked any fluency in addressing the issues. Too much dependence on Legal. Aren't lawyers called "mouthpieces"? I thought Jesus was the Word (mouthpiece).

    WOW, that was a good programme, and will hopefully stir up a hornet's nest as all the victims of abuse come out of the closet, and make it public! It would have been nice to have had a little bit more on the Watchtower's doctrines and background, but it was still an excellent programme, and will make the public here especially more aware of what Jehovah's Witnesses, and the Watchtower represent.
