Last night some friends and I watched the film Worlds Apart. It was incredible. It explains in a touching and interesting way nearly everyone of the problems with WT doctrine. The non JW will enjoy this film and come away with a better understanding of JW thinking. I believe that this is important since many people do not know how damaging this religion can be until a family member is already sucked in.
One of my friends wrote the following:
"I was very surprised how accurately the witnesses were portrayed. The movie didn't shy away from the emotional toll the dictates of the watchtower has on it's members."
Truly a movie to talk about. I hope that many people are able to see this in the future.

- I have a multi-faceted personality and diversified interests, most notably science and technology. My fascination with science and technology started when I began cracking open radios and TVs at age 5, and I haven't stopped since. I attended high school at Brooklyn Technical High School in NYC. Then the detours began. Throughout my bumpy career I have been many things in the building industry and now am back to what I originally studies as an Electronics Professional. As a volunteer I have served for three years on a PTA Board, one year as its VP, two years as a Co-President. I am now 2nd Vice President of the District 30 CEC (http://schools.nyc.gov/Offices/CEC/GPInformation/CommunityEducationCouncils/default.htm). I love science fiction, particularly the hard core sci-fi of the 1940s and '50s.

Review
verdener/ Worlds Apart
Niels Arden Oplev, 2008
Sara and her family are proud to belong to Jehova’s Witnesses. In the local community they go from door to door and preach on Judgment Day and eternal salvation for Jehova’s chosen ones. But when Sara falls in love with Teis, she is confronted with the choice of her life.
Teis is not a Witness, but still their love grows through stolen, secret meetings. Sara is torn between her conscience, faith and passion; forced to make a choice between her love and her family that are worlds apart..."
