Can a District trump TV?

For the most part, the Apostolic churches in Kansas stand together in our opposition of television. It has been -- and continues to be -- an issue for us.

For the record again, I did not start this thread to "lure" you into a trap of bashing you for your opinion.

I simply wonder if the conservative districts could satisfy the felt needs of the ones who don't want tv on any level by using a district by-law like the one OK has.

I was also wondering if Oklahoma district would have to change their manual by removing the prohibition against tv that has been in place for decades...

With that said, I am not confortable with the direct dialog that seems to lean toward criticism of you on this thread and wanted you to know that. I really appreciate your honest answers here and the interaction you have given to this subject.

Now back on topic, Has anyone else inquired with district officials or some parlimentarian to find out if a district can trump a national allowance on TV?

Second, How do you think the Oklahoma district will go about removing its said prohibition if that is in fact the case...
