About us
www.becauseyouthink.tv is a new concept in broadcast media. We are using our own resources to steadily bring the most significant and thought provoking documentary television to DVD and also to a unique online research platform.
These films will be exclusively available in DVD and Pay Per View for the very first time through www.becauseyouthink.tv. However, we also intend that this site should become an online library where the important topics covered in these films can be studied in depth via subscribed access to all of the source material used by the film makers. Producer and Director notes, insights into the leading minds featured in these programmes and direct links to their work will all be included free of charge.
We start with two of the most thought provoking documentaries to come out of British television in recent years.
The first DVD is titled "Stem Cells: The Promise" and consists of two films, "Beginnings" and "Immortality". These were shown in as part of Channel 4s "Equinox" series and provide viewers with a staggering insight into the very real capabilities and imminent implications of Stem Cell Technology. Stem Cell medicine is at the top of the global news agenda and it should be, for reasons that go way beyond the controversy of human cloning. As these films show, Stem Cell apostosis is already capable of curing cancers. It will be used to successfully reverse the damage caused by heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and arthritis. Telomere Technology even raises the prospect of treatment which can reverse the effects of ageing. This is not science fiction. It is already happening. Individuals, governments and societies had better be prepared for a population that will have an everage lifespan af between 120 and 150 years old..
The second film is David Malone's critically acclaimed "Testing God". Described by The Financial Times of London as "the most complex and demanding series I have ever seen on the box". "Testing God" pits our belief in God against modern science. Testing God re-examines the relationship between science and religion and asks: is science's claim to victory premature?
Leading scientific and academic minds including George Steiner, Professor Sir Roger Penrose and Richard Dawkins share their views.
Further films will follow in the summer of 2007, including David Malones "Soul Searching" his 2003 sequel to "Testing God", again in DVD format and again giving our members comprehensive and free library access into all of the source material used by the director.
"Dangerous Knowledge" is available on DVD from 20th February.
