Religious criticism

I honestly feel that if someone you know and care about is considering converting to a different faith you should be supportive of them even if you dont agree with it...I think the only comments that should be made are things like "have you done your research on it?" or "may I ask why you'd like to convert?" OR "have you given it a lot of thought?" and things like that...Nonthreatening or insulting comments but other than that I dont think its your place to say anything and it certainly wouldnt do anyone any good if you blurt out negative comments etc....

Religion is a way to live, so yes one should. One can use this logic www.byefareed.8888mb.com

If someone I cared about came to me and said they were considering a change of religion, I would likely be interested in discussing it with them. I would ask what got them started on this path, what they've learned, and how it makes them feel. If it were a religion I knew a lot about, I would offer some of my insight, but if it weren't, I'd just add it to my list of things to research. I love learning. As for criticism of that religion, I don't think I'd offer much. The only situation in which I would offer criticism when a friend wanted to change religions is if I felt they were being coerced in some way. As long as that's not the case, I would be positive about the whole thing, and supportive. I think everyone has the right to find their own spiritual path.

I think it would depend on how well I knew the person. If it was someone I knew well and cared about I would attempt to share my knowledge of that religion but would be very careful not to judge because of my own beliefs - stick to facts or personal experiences. Someone I didn't know well I might just say I had heard some things about that religion and see if they asked "what" that would be an opening to share.
