A religion is not something you can force someone to do. God is the only one who can judge a person if what he is doing is correct or not.
If you are a muslim back up your points with some real and intelligent evidence to this context.

Angle of: then whats the advantage of becoming a muslim then if your change of denomination is under the control of the muslims themselves and not God.

the punishment for apostasy under shariah law is death
According to the Koran/Quran
I am not a muslim and not trying to justify it, but if a country is under shariah law, it is the law.
Note that it is not only muslims changing religion that are accused of apostasy but those considered having different views to what is currently acceptable in a region or group.
Peace be upon you all
Edit: Blisterin, that is one of my main criticisms of Islam, in that its adherents don't seem to believe God can judge for himself.

According to the Islamic law, a Muslim who converts to another religion being Christianity, Judiasm, etc. is to be killed. There are some exceptions though... if the person is mentaly unstable, if they were forced to convert to another religion, stuff like that. The Prophet (PBUH) said that killing someone who converted to another religion should be the last resort. A person has to be tried in Islamic court. They will decide the punishment. Why don't you find the truth out for yourself. The media here is'nt going to give you ALL the facts and the truth, it just doesn't happen. Don't judge people that way. Different religions have different laws.

Mr.Blisterin... Barnacles ,Islam is a religion that I see is perfect , but Muslims can't be perfect because they are humans not angels and humans make mistakes so if you really want to ask someone or to learn something about Islam you'd better ask a Sheikh and not learn it from the media ,
And about what you said I totally agree with you 100%,but to be clear with you I must tell you that killing Muslims who become Christians or Jews isn't actually written in the Holly Quran ,but some people say that Prophet Mohammad-pbuh- said that they must be killed , and others said he meant that we must only kill the ones who become christians or Jews and then they started killing Muslims , but since it is not clear yet Muslims connot-not allow to- kill anyone for that reason, and as you wrote in your question SOME Muslim groups unfortunately do it .
So please don't judge Muslims by the mistake of others , and if you have any question about Islam or Muslims I'll be more than happy to answer you.

well, its a very sensitive topic to discuss. its all up to individual that's all. people perceive the same thing in different ways right. if people kill others because of reasons you say, the why is mother nature taking away life's in the recent years like volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, flood, drought, haze, typhoons which affects everyone and any one regardless of religion or race. god may be trying to say something here, that's for you to find out.

The same groups kill anyone who isn't the same "brand" of Muslim they are. In truth, to them it isn't about religion, it is about POWER. May God have mercy on their souls.

From your context, this is my answer:
Why do u have a death penalty for anything? For murder, for dealing drugs, for terrorism, for treason? Hey..let God deal with them too!!
How do you answer this?
