  Dutch are known for their concensus culture. No big shocks. That's why Wilders is not in power. We like sometimes the stone in the lake he trows, but we don't trust him in power.

  More a Calvinist cost / profit calculation.

  The Netherlands economy has overcome the crisis of 2008. Rutte has done the right thing on meta economics, the Dutch economy is the strongest and most healty of Europe.

  @Anders,

  I expect you need some time getting involved in the voting proces.

  Of course, it is not allways easy. And because of the JW experience, it takes some courage to be a part of "the world".

  It took me some years to vote out in the open. Because i'm a fader, i expect some repercusion if "they" observe me stepping into the voting office.

  I did a strategic vote this time. Not following my heart but blocking populism by giving the excelent Mark Rutte my vote.

  His quote earlyer this week made a very good expression to me: "it doesn't matter how long you are living in Holland. Maybe your family lives 400 year here. Maybe you are new here. You are welcome and equel if you have a possitive attitude to the country."

  I voted here in Holland, today.

  What a great victory for democraty.

  Rows of voters everwhere.

  JW's are missing this moment, taking responsability.

  Who wins, let's see. The Dutch are not crazy.

  The TMS was a forced education during my childhood. The outcome was possitive, it gave me good skills for presentation and marketing.

  Later on in life, a bachelor and master degree showed me that there is more in life 😎 then TMS and Awake! academy.

  If you want to archive something in life, choose for the best education.

  What is the basis for advising “Don’t pursue higher studies”?

  by venus in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  two elders who visited my friend last week encouraged her not to pursue higher studies.

  it seems they are dishing out the same old stuff: “the end is imminent, and this is the time to do more in the service; hence don’t waste your resources on higher studies.”.

  i wonder whether there was some official communiqué (something that is sent out recently like letter to the elders, or kingdom ministry article …).

  Next to the new HQ there is the IBM Warwick office qith high speed connexions. Just across the lake.

  So it is not a desert location.
