Some Convert from one to another, for the purpose of Marriage, by which the Religion forbids marriage outside it's own Religion, and there are probably as many reasons for changing from one to the other, as there are Religions to begin, or end with, of which Sex Scandals within the Church, or Temple, Etc. would tend to make the list as well.

Other than marriage why do people convert from one religion to another?

Answer 1Christians may convert to Islam, or Muslims to Christianity, because they believe that their new religion is the true path to God. Others may convert to Buddhism because they respect the ethical values and path of Buddhism. Conquered people tend to convert to the religion of their conquerors, even when there is no compulsion to do so. In other cases, they are persecuted until they do convert to the dominant religion. Uneducated people can be converted by force of personality or the belief that those they look up to are probably right about these things. Nelson Mandela, in his autobiography (The Long Walk to Freedom), tells how he became a Christian because by doing so he would be able to attend school.Answer 2Some people convert because they feel threatened or afraid that if they do not convert, they will suffer in this world. Some people convert because there are economic, political, or social advantages to being part of a certain religious group. Some others have an epiphany or life-changing moment where they "discover" that a different religion is the right one for them and their ethics. Some others are captivated by technological wonders that adherents of foreign religions have.And finally, some people debate and deliberate over which religion best suits how they see the world and choose to go with that one.Answer 3(Continuing from Answer 2) And some people, after thought and prayer, realize that the religion they were taught and had not thought about before, was not what they believed. Each person should investigate the teachings of the religion they were taught to see if they truly believe it.Are human bodies that have been dead for centuries even thousands of years going to be reassembled from the molecules that have dispersed during composition and float into the sky?

Why do some people believe that it is their duty to change people who does not share their beliefs to their own way of thinking?

This Question is potentially broader than religion but, since it has been categorised in part as a religious Question, I will give that perspective. Certain religions are known as 'proselytising' religions and strongly encourage their followers to convert others to that religion. So, Christians believe that they have a duty to convert followers of all other religions, to Christianity, while Muslims believe that they have a duty to convert followers of all other religions, to Islam. Judaism was once seen as a proselytising religion, but less so now. Many Christians strongly believe that their religion is the one true religion and, for some, there may even be a sense that it is in some way irrational for others not to convert readily to Christianity, when told what Christians believe. Also, it is a requirement among certain minor Christian sects and denominations for young adults to spend up to two years attempting to convert others.
