The next step for the KNOCKING program is for the International Television Services (ITVS) to review the program's material and presentation. Only after this would PBS make any reviews for potential airing. Hence, stakeholders (all of us!) should write our concerns to the Director or Communications for ITVS, Mr. Jim Sommers. His email is [email protected]. Or, you can give him a call at 415-356-8383 extension x242. Or you can send a hardcopy letter by snailmail addressed to 501 York Street, San Francisco, CA 94110.

Thanks Marvin,

I am wondering what aspect we should stress. What is he looking for? Is it accuracy, evenhanded approach, or saleability. Just not sure of the best way to appeal to him. Please give clues.

i have been contacted by an international award winning producer of documentaries and films for television.. .

do you know of anybody or are you currently involved with disciplinary action taken by the elders, or have you recently been "invited" to a judicial hearing?.

do you know of any young witness who has "reached out" of the organization for social support in defiance of wt training.. .

Thank you rambaldi

it is very decent of you to come on the board and give the posters another chance to point out the wts's hypocrisy.

although we all feel it is important that lurkers and questioning witnesses are informed about the scandals of the society, many dont feel comfortable bringing them up all the time.

so when you bring these subjects up you give all the lurkers and questioning jws yet another opportunity to find out many things of which they may not have been aware.

You are doing a service for honest JW’s.
I understand more and more why the GB forbids loose cannons such as you to be on the net. You really do them a lot of damage.
Keep up the good work. Thank you yesidid

bearing in mind i do not attend meetings, and theyve stopped calling to get the "report" i will not be able to give them the good news.

what a shame.

is there somewhere else i can report?.

Well they may get pinched. But I got my first copy from the library. It didn't get pinched. Am I grateful for that?

When we used to "place" literature with the poor unsuspecting householders we knew some would get thrown out, unread.

So what if some are pinched. They can be replaced. They're not expensive.

It just needs one person to be kept or get out of the religion to make it worth it.

I think it's a great idea.

just created a site www.jwfacts.com

by jwfacts in

i just put together a site that tries to logically show the witnesses are not the true religion.

just wondering how to get the information out to people that most need it.

also any ideas on how to get the site found by search engines.

yesidid

but i'd advise you to give thought to people in the early stages of WTS-doubt who may not believe fully in the WTS but still don't want to feel like the beliefs they still hold are being attacked by loaded words such as "bias", "dishonest", or "wrong". However i did enjoy the personal expressions and experiences scattered throughout.

I totally agree with this. Had I read some of the sites with all the "loaded' words, when I was first coming out It would have put me off.

Having said that: What a great site. I just read the part about the worship of Jesus. Very interesting. You are doing a great job, it's quite professional looking and very informative Top marks.
