Never had a Muslim or a Jew once tried to evangelise their faith to me.
Don'ts that mean the Jews and Muslims care only about their own salvation and are selfish?

No, that just simply means that they are comfortable in their faith and they don't feel the need to "recruit" people. Their religion(s) dont' require popular acceptance. Just an opinion.

These types of religions are on a quest for one thing - World Domination. they want to be the biggest and best, no matter what. Most of them don't even believe what they teach, they are only in it to be a part of 'the biggest group'
Jews and Muslims (and they aren't the only ones either) on the other hand believe simply because they do, and they don't feel a need to shove their religion down other people's throats.

Not really. We Muslims know that if you don't want to, fine. Whatever.
Plus, if you're a good Christian or Jew, doesn't really matter. The Qu'ran said that even good Christians and Jews willl have their reward in the afterlife.
Qu'ran 2:62:
Surely those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Christians, and the Sabians, whoever believes in God and the Last day and does good, they shall have their reward from their Lord, and there is no fear for them, nor shall they grieve.

no ---its because we do not shove our religion down ppl throat----and we know that God choose whom he like to the straight way.
we never bribe poor ppl to Islam---like some do in Africa-----actually we tell u to think once and twice before u decide to make such a move ----u have to be 150% convinced

dear friend,
According to Quran every muslim should propogate & speak about his religion to every possible soul.However they are not suposed to convert others by fraudlent mean.According to Islam message of Islam should be deliverd,change of heart of individual is in hand of ALLAH(GOD).
I am sending you brief introduction of Islam.
Islam is a Semitic religion, which has over one billion adherents all over the world. Islam means "submission to the will of God". Muslims accept the Qur’an, as the word of God revealed to His last and final prophet, Mohammed (peace be upon him). Islam states that Allah sent messengers and prophets throughout the ages with the message of Unity of God, and accountability in the Hereafter.
The Most Concise Definition of God:
The most concise definition of God in Islam is given in the four verses of Surah Ikhlas which is Chapter 112 of the Qur’an:
"Say: He is Allah,
The One and Only.
"Allah, the Eternal, Absolute.
"He begets not, nor is He begotten.
And there is none like unto Him."
[Al-Qur’an 112:1-4]
The word ‘Assamad’ is difficult to translate. It means ‘absolute existence’, which can be attributed only to Allah (swt), all other existence being temporal or conditional. It also means that Allah (swt) is not dependant on any person or thing, but all persons and things are dependant on Him.

Surah Ikhlas - the touchstone of theology:
Surah Ikhlas (Chapter 112) of the Glorious Qur’an, is the touchstone of theology. ‘Theo’ in Greek means God and ‘logy’ means study. Thus Theology means study of God and to Muslims this four line definition of Almighty God serves as the touchstone of the study of God. Any candidate to divinity must be subjected to this ‘acid test’. Since the attributes of Allah given in this chapter are unique, false gods and pretenders to divinity can be easily dismissed using these verses.
I recomend u to study quran.

Muslims would never let you go if you started to convert. They are fanatics. As for the Jews. You can convert, but you better have a large pocketbook.
