Can Jehovah's Witnesses socialize with people of other faiths?

Answer 1

Yes, they do. Many Jehovah's Witnesses have close friends and associates that are not of their faith. However they likely usually find friends from those that share their value system. Jehovah's Witnesses are cautioned about the dangers of associating too closely with those that are immoral, sexually provocative or violent.

The Watchtower 2nd February 1994 comments:

''We must also be on guard against extended association with worldly people. Perhaps it is a neighbor, a school friend, a workmate, or a business associate.''

Kingdom Ministry June 1989

'' We have been counseled to be cautious in our dealings with men of the nations, unbelievers, and ordinary persons. (See the November 15, 1988, issue of The Watchtower, pages 15-16.) Why should we have unnecessary social contact with people who still pursue worldly ways and who have not become worshipers of Jehovah?''

Watchtower 15th April 1993

''Limit your association to spiritually minded Christians who really love Jehovah''

With these things in mind spiritually mature Jehovah's Witnesses try to avoid associating in any meaningful way with non Jehovah's Witnesses.
