What Do Jehovah's Witnesses Believe?

---

Independent filmmaker Joel P. Engardio wrote and narrated the PBS documentary "Knocking," which explains misunderstood aspects of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Raised as a Witness, Engardio chose not to join the faith because he disagrees with some of its positions. His film, however, explores many of the positive contributions that Witnesses have made to society. In a series of brief Beliefnet videos, Engardio answers frequently-asked questions about Witnesses.

Are they a cult? Do they celebrate holidays? What do they believe about Jesus? Do they get 'brownie points' for going door to door or for converting people? Where do they stand in the culture wars? Why do they refuse blood transfusions? Do they vote? Do they think only a few people go to heaven? How have they impacted U.S. civil liberties? These 3-minute Beliefnet interviews with Joel P. Engardio include clips from his documentary, "Knocking," which was co-produced and directed by Tom Shepard.
