Answer 1

For the dental plan.

Answer 2

I've never converted to a different religion, but I imagine that a person would convert if they found a religion that defines life more clearly for them or if they don't necessarily agree with all the aspects of their previous religion.

For a person to convert, I think they would definitely have to be a spiritually aware person who obviously believes in some form of organized divinity system and practices religious rituals. Or else, why make it a point to be a part of a different religion?

The religion they would convert to would make the world make more sense to them than the religion they converted from.

Answer 3

Hi. Happy Sabbath. I was Baptist; converted to Catholicism as an 8th grade Catholic school student, & became an S. D. A. as an adult. The adult conversion happenend when I realized that the created; not The Creator, changed the Sabbath to Sunday. I thought people had some nerve changing what God has established... Take care.

Answer 4

I was raised in a Christian family, but was not satisfied with the answers the Church had about the time we are living in and the way they interpreted the message of Jesus. After looking for the Messengers of the time before Christinity, I realised that the promised one had appeared in Persia in 1844, and became Bahai. This religion accepts the compatibility of science and religion, abolishes prejudices and brings a vision of Peace accessible for the whole world, while accepting the Prophets of the past.

Answer 5

I could no longer contradict the negative aspects of Christianity as early as 4th grade. After a half-decade as a militant atheist, I softened to agnosticism. A series of insights, which at the time I would not have considered to be about religion, led me to realize that the philosophy I'd been developing on my own had put me on quite similar grounds with paganism. Trying out different aspects led me to my current niche: Animism.

PS Raz: I, not an atheist, gave you your first thumbs-down here. It's easy to insult another without adding anything decent to the dialogue. I welcome you to make a point intelligently and respectfully - if you're up to the challenge.

Answer 6

I converted to Asatru because for me it felt like the most natural and honorable choice. It gives me a fulfillment in life that no other religion ever could do. I have more connection with the Norse Gods and Goddesses than I do any other deities.

Answer 7

i wanted my children to have a religious community. i did not want it to be the one i was raised with. i chose my religion based on what most closely matched the things that i believed in, and did not require me to accept ideas that went against my beliefs. i knew what i was looking for based on the things i found lacking in my parent's religion. i looked into several faiths with those things in mind before officially converting.

for me the biggies were i wanted a faith that was family oriented, action based, and encouraged independent thought. i did not want scare tactics, blind obedience, or the idea that what you believe is more important than what you do.

i think each person has their own "biggies" and should chose their religion, if they choose one at all, based on those things, without settling.

religion should enhance your personal spirituality, not "water it down" or change it completely just so that is more acceptable to someone else.

Answer 8

I asked hard questions of Scriptures, and was satisfied with the answers I got. The Almighty YHVH set up a system. He sent His “Son” YAHOSHUA to die for the sins of mankind so they would not have to. (They could choose to, but did not have to). Any person who chooses not to allow Yahoshua to take care of their sins, chooses to remain attached to their sins. They thus will wind up in the lake of fire which is YHVH’s method of cleaning this world, and eliminating sin and sinners. The Creator set aside the Seventh day for rest and worship. Yes that is the day usually called “Saturday”. We are not saved by obedience, we are saved by faith. However we are saved FOR obedience. As He said in John 14:15 (and in many other places) “If you love me, keep my commandments.
The only thing that will change a person is the indwelling savior Yahoshua. Obviously that is rare in this sinful world.

Answer 9

I was born a Christian and still believe. If you cannot see Gods work around the world than something is wrong. There are many examples of Gods existance.

Answer 10

It is what gives me peace. I have studied others but I understand mine. That may be for cultural reasons, but regardless it has certainly helped me to make myself better and be better to others as a result. I hope everyone can find some way to think or believe that provides them with such peace and love for humanity.

Answer 11

I converted to Islam because I found that I believe in the true teachings of the Qur'an, the message of peace, not the preconceived "Western" view of "Jihadists must kill infidels to get into Heaven."

As-Salaamu Alaykum - Peace be upon you
