The Islamics forbid one from trying to convert an Islamic to another religion with dire consequences in store for the convert. Why? Is there fear that the convert might learn that he/she is not the center of the universe, that the earth does not rotate around Islam. Why is it that Islamics will not tolerate any religion other than Islam, even forbidding military troops from having Holy Scriptures when they come to war against enemies who are warring against the Islamics. The Islamic countries forbid converting their citizens to another religion, BUT, when the Islamics come to a Western countries they are not hindered when they try to convert Westerners to Islam. Why? Oh, I forgot, you "Islamics" don't like our religions, BUT you sure like our money. Interesting.
