well unlike the my evil counterparts the idoiodic terrorists I BELIEVE that converting should be someones choose and not forced...God gave free will...even the terrorists don't have the right to take that away. the terrorists seem to think they have the right to play God...i don't think so

If no one ever converted, there would be no religions! Think about it -- the first followers of Jesus converted from Judaism or other religions to become Christians. The early Muslims converted from paganism to become Muslims.
I think you should research carefully and if you believe you have found the Truth, you can do nothing else but convert. Anything else would be to live a lie (how could one pretend to be waiting for the Messiah when they believed He had already come, for instance?).
I was raised Christian, but became a Baha'i when I was in high school because I read and prayed about it and came to believe with all my heart that it is true. I cannot pretend to be anything else.
Hope this helps.

Knowing Jesus is not religion - it is relationship. Having said that - what do I think about knowing Jesus and having a relationship with Him?- It is the best thing that has ever happened to me - I have Eternal Life and Heaven as my home when I pass from here. What could be more exciting!!

You need to follow your head and your heart. Go with what you believe in.
Just do yourself a favor and REALLY research exactly what it is you're joining. Don't join just because something sounds good at the time. Make sure you really and truly understand the beliefs and obligations of the religion you're joining.

People should convert to another religion if they are dissatisfied with the one they are with. Life is meant to be happy and enjoyable.

IT IS interesting.
If you are not getting along and having a relationship with the Lord or any thing in your belief system, why not change? If you have trusted and have not had results, why not change.
If you have believed and to no avail, why not change.
If you have not seen anything of a spiritual value in your life, why not change.
Seems to me it is a two way operation, You and God.
Not just one way, you only.
If it is one way then why not change.

Just aspire to feel UNITY among all. Find the commonality of all the various religions then just live as a Child of God.

what is your opinion on converting to a different religion?
If that is your desire--and you prayed about it--may god bless you.

Change is good when you know what you are changing to.
If you want to change cause someones else wants you to change then don't. Change because you believe what the religion believes with all of your heart and soul.
Good Luck
