@coffee addict, nope. never once was I told that. But I know what you mean. People are scared of others going OTD if they hear what’s going on out there, but that’s because it might me enticing. But on the other hand, Da Ma Shetoshuv, you need to know what to answer. As a matter of fact I’ve had many many non-jews ask me about my religion over the years and I gladly answered them all. I was once told by a goy that his religion was true and it is clear in Nach. I did not have an answer at the time as I was young and didn’t know pesukim from Yecheskel etc which he quoted. So I asked my rabbi what its talking about and that was the end of that. Most people are asking out of curiosity.
By a cult you dare talk a word about what they do.
