Absolutely not. I'd be just as likely to want to change my religion as any other devoutly religious person who is happy with their path.

I think everyone should seriously consider the options available when choosing a 'religion'.
Working out who or what you will worship is not like choosing an ice cream flavour. It is a big deal. If you get it totally wrong (assuming you believe in wright and wrong), then the consequences are HUGE.
For example, lets say that you believe in a relgion that teaches that you will go to a certain place when you die. However, when you die... you discover that another religion had it right.
I personally have chosen to follow Jesus Christ. This was not a light decision, but one that took taken me many years to make.
So if someone asked me to change my religion, I would ask 'why'? I need some solid reasons and personal testimonies as to how a religion works and how it impacts people's lives.

As I have studied the Bible over the years, I have come to know that a lot of religions have a peace of the truth here and some have a peace there, but none except one has it all, or should I say that they had it all, until apostasy was forced in. My religion is the Seventh-day Adventist Founders. I do not espouse the 27 (now 28) fundamental beliefs, nor any other new age belief, nor any doctrines of man. The Bible, the Whole Bible, and Nothing But the Bible. (KJV only).

I don't have a religion, so I don't have anything to change. And I wouldn't give up the personal relationship I have with Jesus Christ.

Good question, Laura
I, for one, wouldn't. I've praticed my religion since I can long remember; it's become a part of me (my best memories growing up were doing positive activities with our church groups).
Love or friendship: you gotta respect the other's religious beliefs. It's rather selfish I think to ask one to change their religion for yours. It's equally shallow for one to be snubbed because he/she does not ascribe to someone's religious orthodox.

If someone ASKED me to change? No. If someone showed me good reason for changing? Yes. I did that already. Many years ago.

Asked? Nope.
However, if they offered me a rational argument that I agreed with, I'd change in a heartbeat.
My mother church's motto is "In Ratio Veritas", or "In Reason, Truth", so if I think it's logical, it's probably true as well. I'm always seeking a better, more reasonable truth.

I am a born Christian and understand Bible. I will never change my religion even if somebody pays me million dollars.

That question doesn't apply to me, me got no religion, so no need to change.

No I would not. I am wiccan and prefer to worship how I want when I want and with whom I want. I don't discriminate anyone or anything and make a very conscious decision to be a friend to everyone no matter what. And I don't try to EVER push my beliefs on ANYONE.
