Why conversions?

Both the Christians and Muslims have a big desire to convert everybody else into their respective religion; Why?

If God wanted anybody to be Christian/Muslim He would make him/her born into that religion. I am sure as per theology He is capable of doing it. Then;

Why it’s not so that every newborn is born only in Christian/Muslim household? If God didn’t wanted it this way why are Christians/Muslims trying to change God’s will. Do the religion followers think they can do better job than God?

^hey u told me ur muslim... mad

Actually we r just suppose to tell people about our religion and move on, we have to, you know dawah, all the prophets just spread the message and people converted due to their free will cuz of the message, for muslims it' s* do the work of a messenger and get the reward of a messenger, *but people think dawah is no good without conversions, so they often focus on conversations more. And ur right if a person is meant to be muslim or will convert later, it's God's will...but we have been given the responsibility to spread the message and especially in todays world to clear up the misconceptions.

Light Bearer,

I told you Humans and Jinns have free will. Well I forgot to get this article about Dr. Jeffrey Lang an atheist converted to Islam. A mathematical professor and a very logical person. You can please do more research on it.

Click on the link below, well this is wrt the topic. Light Bearer, I used to ask the same questions as you used to couple of years back. Well there had to be epiphany and it all changed, many questions have been answered to me now, compared to when I was an agnostic.

Re: Why conversions?

Forget about religion and others. If I had to leave everythign to God thinking God can do a better job. I wonder why are we born to our parents and are under there shelter, though God could do a better job and God would make us an adult as seen as we open our eyes in this world.

Re: Why conversions?

umm..cause life is a test?

Allah can surely have us all created in Muslim families...but then what would be the purpose of that? Thats like giving a kid all the answers and everything...just to have him pass the test.

Re: Why conversions?
