Unwitnessing in Workplace
I’m POMO for more than 2 years now and no one at work knows I was a JW.
It was a chill day at work and one staff (Filipino) started a convo about religion (maybe because Christmas is coming). I work in a multi-cultural workplace. I just said I’m agnostic but at one point, I was really interested with religion that I researched a lot. Then another staff (Australian) said she’s unaffiliated but her parents were JWs. The girl who started the convo said she knew about the JWs because of their house-to-house activities. I said I know them because of a documentary I’ve seen discussing cults, same as Scientology. The Australian girl who has JW parents said her mom told her never to go back to that religion as its evil. Kudos to her mom! Then we started sharing bad stuff we know about the religion like how they shun people who chose to leave the religion, how they let their kids die by choosing to refuse blood transfusion, etc. It feels so good to unwitness to other people. Now, the girl who started the conversation is aware how bad the JW religion is. She said she thought JWs are harmless.
