Being an Hindu, there is no rules that You cannot change religion.
If You want to change religion, You can simply proceed to a church or get baptized in the church.
Be warn of Christianity and Islam. There is nothing wrong with these religions but once You convert to these religions, what I know is You can't change.
It is like why You never get Your Boyfriend convert into Hindu?
Being a Hindu , or Taoist or Buddhist ... You still can pray to Jesus and other gods and dieities.
I have Hindu friends who have Jesus, Mother Mary, Guan Ti, Tua Peh Kong in their Altars.

You seems to be in a dilemma because you are in LOVE
LOVE means GOD, Love means Care, LOVE means Concern
Since LOVE epitomises everything mentioned above GO AHEAD and get married.
Go to the Civil Registry - that is the best advice.
Forget about, temples, churches and other places of "worship"
You will NOT find GOD in it.
GOD resides in your HEART of HEARTs.
This is best idea. Thanks for your reply.
from Hinduism to Christianity ???!!!.................
Hinduism is far closer to the ''truth'' brudder...................
at least the Hindus know about karma, reincarnation and that physical reality is an illusion...................
be a Sikh lah......................Jain lagi better..............
at least the Sikhs can reason that God should be formless, genderless and nameless..................
Christian is a illogical religion base on the Holy Bible book alone. There are 240 denominations in Christ religion and adds another 3,000 more denominations in the US.
Which Christain is your b.f from? Some Christians are known as cults, so be wary? Some Christians are very troublesome with their rituals and praying is similar to Hindus or Buddhist religion.
Love is blind religion a hallucination going beyond blind.

look at this from a logical point of view; YOU ARE CHOOSING WHICH GOD TO WORSHIP?
i suggest you read up more about philosophies, origins of human species, evolutions, cosmology etc... if you change your religion, it is like changing one igorant mindset to another.
We live in a society where you are free to worship (or not). That's entirely up to you.
Cheers!
Cheers!
contrary to what sylvester134 said, in Christianity, anyone is free to leave the religion, there is no compulsion. However under Islam, apostasy is punishable by death even though its illegal here. Those Muslims who quit Islam in Singapore gets ostracised but not killed instead. many get kicked out of the house and disowned.
LOL. There is no such law of the death penalty in Islam. You are either misinformed or you are trying to spread lies about something you have no knowledge or little knowledge of. Either way I'm here to correct that misinformation so you may be rightly guided.
As I've mentioned , no where in the Quran do you find the punishment for apostasy. Even examples of prophet Muhammad peace be upon him abound wherein he pardons his followers who turned away from Islam n became Christians n other idol worshippers.
All lies half truths n untruths must not go unchallenged ( lee Kuan yew)
if you think that was good , ill show you something even better.
What does the Bible say about how to deal with people who change their religion and turn away from Christianity?
shall we start with deutronomy chapter 13?
king james version ok with you?
Deuteronomy
Chapter 13
KJV
1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, 2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them; 3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul. 4 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him. 5 And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the evil away from the midst of thee.
6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers; 7 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; 8 Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: 9 But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people. 10 And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee away from the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. 11 And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall do no more any such wickedness as this is among you.
12 If thou shalt hear say in one of thy cities, which the LORD thy God hath given thee to dwell there, saying, 13 Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known; 14 Then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought among you; 15 Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword. 16 And thou shalt gather all the spoil of it into the midst of the street thereof, and shalt burn with fire the city, and all the spoil thereof every whit, for the LORD thy God: and it shall be an heap for ever; it shall not be built again. 17 And there shall cleave nought of the cursed thing to thine hand: that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and show thee mercy, and have compassion upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers; 18 When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD thy God.
So as you can see, the punishment of apostasy in Christianity is DEATH, and not only that, the one who tries to convert you is also to be put the death!!!! Note even whole cities are to be destroyed!!!!
So Christians are the last one to talk about the punishment of apostasy, since the punishment for apostasy according to the Bible is DEATH.
What will Christians now say? Will they come up with the typical lie they always say when put in a hole that 'oh no we don’t have to follow the OT anymore'. That has become quite a famous line now, anyways, I would like the Christian to show me where this rule has been abrogated or told to not be followed. I have not seen it in the NT.
Secondly, note the ending of the verse, it says KEPP ALL HIS COMMANDMENTS, which also include this command to kill apostates and those who try to convert you. Let us read what Jesus said in the NT:
Luke 10:
18. A certain ruler asked him, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"
19. "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone.(shows you by the way that Jesus upon whom be peace is NOT GOD ALMIGHTY)
20. You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.' "
21. "All these I have kept since I was a boy," he said.
22. When Jesus heard this, he said to him, "You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."
So as Jesus himself said, you know the commandments don’t you? Yes, you do, so as Jesus said follow them. And what do we read at the end of Deuteronomy 13:
18 When thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD thy God
So it says keep the commandments, which included killing apostates and those who try to convert you, what did Jesus say? Keep the commandments, ALL OF THEM. Which includes this law of apostasy.
So Christians are the LAST to be talking about freedom to convert. This is just a typical missionary tactic, which is becoming very common now, this also shows how pathetic Christian missionaries really are, and it does show how pathetic some Christian people are also, since they always come preaching how bad Islam is and how Christianity grants freedom for all, obviously they talk from ignorance since most Christians have never even read their own Bible. I am not trying to be offensive in saying that, but it is true, Christians should start reading their own Bible, and read the filth found in it, when you tell a Christian that Judah had sex with his daughter in law and that Jesus comes from this lineage, they call you a liar and a pervert which shows how little they know about their own Bible.

Same story I have. please give me a idea regarding this what should I do.
My Muslim friend told me that orthodox Islam does teach killing of appostates but it is not practiced here because singapore is not a sharia state.
I have studied this thing myself bro and it is true that apostasy is punishable by death under sharia and
that is why apostates are sentenced to death in many Islamic states or apostates were simply killed by other Muslims till today.
Here is a very well written and schorlarly article on this issue that reference directly from Islamic literature.
http://answering-islam.org/Silas/apostasy.htm
In the first place, do u really need one , my friend?
hai . ive already told you there is no such thing in Islam. where did you study this in detail? your source is Sam Shamoun the anti Islam guy who runs that web. Please quote me the Quranic text that says the person who leaves Islam shall be put to death. Ive also studied the Text and i bet in greater detail than you and i have not found any such verse or verses in the Quran. Even the Hadiths ( the sayings and examples of the Prophet(peace be upon him) has references where he pardoned the Muslims for leaving the religion.Is He then disobeying the Sharia(Islamic Law)? use a lil grey matter man.
If Iran wants to execute somebody for whatever reason then its the state law.Islam does not specify and does not condone killing anyone for their beliefs....in fact if you read the Quran which i very much doubt , you will find many instances where God exhorts mankind to the belief in the Oneness of God and to return to the staight path even after he has strayed right up until your death bed it is still not too late.
And oh ..one more thing..there is no such thing as orthodox Islam like the Christian Orthodox..Islam is Islam and it means submission to the will of God..capiche?
Really if you have a seal in your heart and mind then i cannot help you. Good luck
My dear friend. The source is not Sam Shamoun but by a guy name Silas.
He provided detailed references from the Quran and Hadiths and presented the case logically.
In other words, both in theory and in practice, apostasy is punishable by death under Islam, there is no doubt about it. I don't see the reason why you want to deny it? Are you a Muslim?
Are you embarassed that such teaching exists?
