You basically have not made your choice yet.
Don't convert till you have chosen the belief system that is right for you. You have to believe in what practice.
You can check out religions without converting you know?!
The choice is yours choose with knowledge...

Perhaps you should not look so much into religion and look more into spirituality...Are you trying to find something easy or the Truth?...Most religions today have excellent "Front Men"...Murder in the name of anyone is not right...If you tithe 10% of your money, is that good enough?...If you do not murder or tithe, are you a good person?...If you can imagine something more wonderful than you think possible and love and treat everyone like you treat yourself, do you feel content and peaceful?... Your journey seems sincere...You do not have to convert to anything...just do the next right thing as you travel through life and you will be converted...you will see and know things that you have only dreamed of...No matter what anyone says, in the true beginning, there could be only ONE...

Are you of Celtic descent? (The word "woad" makes me suspicious.) The ancient Celts, especially those who somehow found their way to Asia Minor, were known for their frequency of trying new religions. So when they became Christians in the first century, they rather quickly were swayed from mainstream Christianity to some splinter group. And that's why Paul wrote an epistle to them--they were the Galatians.
To address your question more concretely, all I can advise is that you inquire in depth into any faith that appeals to you before you jump into it. Tell yourself, "I'm going to stay HERE for [some appreciable length of time] before I decide to flit off again," and spend that time inquiring into the faith you've chosen. And, since any religion acknowledges a Supreme Being, pray for guidance!

Maybe it's that you still haven't found a connect that you need yet. Instead of converting to everyone you find interesting, work on making a connection with deity. That is if that's what you are wanting. You may be a spiritual person instead of one who needs religion.

When it's the right one, you will know it, and you will stop converting. Just remember, you don't NEED to go through what Paul went through on the road to Damascus in order to find Him!
Have a blessed day.

You are trying to fit into someones mold. When you find the path that is right for you, you will know. In the meantime, you will just have to stop converting.

You haven't finished your searching yet. What it sounds like is you hear a few good things and believe it, then a few other good things and believe them. If there is a true belief system (and I say there is) then eventually you will find one that answers all the questions, or at least as many as can be understood properly.

because your looking for answers...
Try to stop "converting" for a while, just be a un-affiliated believer and explore religions a bit...
Try to see if you like more eastern or western religions, then narrow your search to a couple of schools.
PS:Mahayana Buddhism says its actually wrong to no learn about all religions and point of views because you might be wrong after all :)

Keep looking at the religions, to find whatever is good in each one, but quit converting to any of them.

All religions, other than the Jewish religion, which was created by God, is made by man and is man’s attempt to please their gods and control other people. All religions have rules, rituals and laws to follow. Every religion believes that they have the answers for redemption. The answer for redemption through religion, lies within man’s ability to perfectly follow it’s teachings which man can not do. Jesus is the only one who followed religion perfectly.
Jesus is God’s way to reach down to mankind with love, forgiveness, acceptance and grace. Jesus is not a religion. He is God and He is the way for man to have fellowship with God.
When we come to Jesus, we are full of the original sin nature and the sins that we have committed. He cleanses us when we accept Him as our Lord and Savior and repent of those sins.
Our redemption and salvation results from Jesus’ willful and sacrificial death on the cross to take our place for our sin nature and our sins. He is the only atonement possible because He is without sin. Jesus does it for us because we are incapable of following any religion perfectly. He did follow the law perfectly.
Coming to Jesus as our Lord and our Savior, not religion, is what God requires for us to become forgiven, sanctified, and have the personal relationship with God that He intended from the start. Jesus is the only way to God.
