You must just stay true to yourself... If you chose to believe in a certain religion no-one can make you change your mind. There will always be someone trying to make you believe in their religion.. but in this case... believe in yourself and your own choice of religion.

Sadly no. Some countries have outlawed all other religions but 1. Some countries have made it illegal to convert from that same religion to another. It's countries like this that prove that some people created God in their own image, and not the other way around. They put you in religous handcuffs and shackle you to what THEY call God. No choice...believe it OR ELSE!
That's what I love about USA. Everyone is FREE to choose whatever they want. Most often, they are raised into a certain religion, but in their late teens and early twenties, they stray and start making spiritual judgement calls. Some of them lose their religion entirely. That's their RIGHT. Maybe that's why "Wicca" is actually the fastest growing religion in the USA, contrary to some people's claim.
I'm not a Wiccan, but I respect their right to worship how they see fit. They don't go around the internet spamming their religion all over the place, or proudly boasting that THEIR religion is the fastest growing in the USA.

In Christianity, freedom of religion already exists because Christianity is a one-on-one relationship with Jesus Christ. Because it is personal, Christianity can be practiced any time and anywhere, even in the silence of a prison cell. Paul and Silas practiced their faith while locked up in the deepest and darkest dungeon that the Romans could find. You do not need a church to be a Christian---all you need is faith.

No, we are not going to see true freedom of religion, because there are more fanatics now than before.

I believe I will be here when Christ returns, I believe he is getting ready, I believe the trumpets are ready to sound, freedom is whats in my heart, and man can not take that away, I don`t have to walk into a building to worship God, I cn worship him in my heart, and everyone has that same freedom.

NO. Freedom of religion is due to the handy work of Satan/Jinn/Devil and also human nature to follow their own desires rather than following the simple message of all the prophets that is to believe in ONLY ONE GOD in order to achieve the PURPOSE OF LIFE.

I am free. I have the freedom to choose my religion. I chose Islam. What about you? Are you not free? Why not?

Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only, apart from Jesus there is no freedom.
