i see no reason why anyone should refrain from trying to persuade others to join their religion. the way i see it, everybody is entitled to their beliefs, and they are also entitled to express them, and attempt to convert others.
i don't mind it when christians attempt to convert me to christianity, i actually enjoy it, as it gives me an insight into why they believe what they do. equally, i feel justified in trying to convert them into believing what i believe because, in the end, once they have all the facts, it is their decision what they believe.
one thing i DO object to is the indoctrination of children. i believe that parents are fundamentally mistreating their children by bringing them up as any particular religion, as that partially removes that element of choice. children should be given the facts, but not persuaded to believe any particular thing.
