In my opinion, the "religion" (if in fact it IS a religion) that tries to convert people the most is Jehovah Witness.
I'm not completely sure if Jehovah Witness people categorize themselves as a relgious organization or what not, however, they do come to your door, hand out literature, and talk a lot apon meeting you (This is their way to entice you to become one of "them"). Yes, this may be a little harsh, but, being the Christian that I am, I don't appreciate them coming to my door, advertising their "religion" and trying to get me to go to one of their meetings. It's really disturbing and I don't like it.

Christianity and Islam are the only two major world religions which emphasize proselytizing non-believers as an important goal.
Many other religions do it very little or not at all.

Christianity...no religious tolerance....no understanding of others thoughts or feelings ....these things are not allowed according to there own teachings....they are commanded to teach and convert all....
they do not want to be persecuted for there religion....they don't want it to be a factor in there choice of job.....religious discrimination is against the law but...many Christians believe that does not apply to them because they are just fallowing there religion....there religion gives them that right....

no one can convert anyone ; it is all a matter of choice ; since you are not in each and every religion , you can't even give or get an accurate answer. It would be bias and skewed.

The JW's like to think they are trying the most. In fact their door-knocking is 'proof' they are the true Christians and all the others are false!!
They use obscure bible texts to prove this point!

I have always believed that to be Christianity. Lately however, it seems Islam is joining in. Although they don't go knocking on doors they do have other programs at work.

Jehovah Witness. They go door to door. They advertise there selves more than just try to "convert you". Christians more spread the word. Jehovah Witness advertise thereselves almost.

Pope Tom Cruise, in the past on national TV, has made some pretty all encompassing statements about the Church of Scientology.

Christianity. They claim to want to share the "good news". Well, here is the whole of the good news-LOVE. Be good to each other. Don't backstab anyone. Love all humanity. Help when and where you can. That's it. Got it? Now, go live it.
