  What's the deal with not needing Bethelites?

  as a disclaimer, i am an ex-jw (da'd) for about 15+ years, so i really haven't kept up on what's going on in bethel (come to think of it i wasn't really interested in it when i was a jw!

  recently, however, one of my relatives (current jw) commented that, although my nephew had applied to bethel (oh what a privilege!

  ), he was basically told he wasn't needed at this time because they aren't "mailing out the publications" there like they used to.

  Hi all,
  I've never posted here, just *lurked* now and then (feels like I know you : ) - I'm on a similar, smaller, site in Sweden.

  Just wanna add some info to this topic. Apparently, one of the reasons 'they' stopped the subscriptions of WT and Awake is for people like us : ) to not get hold of them.
  One of the most well-respected xjv in Sweden, tried for months to subscribe and was not allowed. They know his name and address too well. He needs new info for his research on jv-history, doctrine and blood.
  He was told that only people interested in the truth are allowed to subscribe!

  There is also evidence that Carl-Olof Jonssons research for his book on the Signs is being used by the society to justify its (slow) withdrawal from the 1914 doctrine.
