Been going to all the meetings lately and have hardly been shunned (they haven't made the announcement yet).
They've now made sure that I can't get Magazines/Literature anymore as they canceled my WT/Awake order and they canceled literature that I had on order. They said (elders) that it's society policy.
Should the Apostle kick up a stink??

P.S. I can still get the latest mags as I still have friends that WON'T shun me cos i'm DA'd.
Always I ask, WHY???? Why do you wanna still get the mags?

“He may obtain copies of the Society’s publications for personal use. Perhaps what he reads will help to correct his thinking, soften his heart and move him to turn back to Jehovah.”
*** w63 7/1 412 What Disfellowshiping Means ***
The disfellowshiped person may purchase literature as any of the public can, but he will not be given the monthly Kingdom Ministry, since he is no longer a minister of the good news of the Kingdom. Neither can he feel that by moving to another congregation he will be freed from the sanctions placed upon him. The local congregation will be notified and public announcement made of his disfellowshiping for the protection of the congregation there.
I can't find anything in the "Organized to Accomplish our Ministry" that updates that to not getting publications.

But, of course.

They can't stop you from getting literature! I'd raise a stink about it! Call the big house!
I just sent off a letter.

The current ruling is you can only obtain campaign literature at the counter. That is any literature that is offered to the public. On the other hand you cannot obtain certain literature that is considered for JW's only. For example the cd, bound volumes, concordance, etc. Typically you go to an elder who will authorize the transaction but you will not be able to obtain quantity, usually only one of each. After this is established you then can usually just go to the counter and get the basics. If the elders denied you this they went to far.
ApostleAK: LOL, I liked the crossword puzzles too! But seriously, why don't you take the money and give it a charity instead of supporting the GB?
