Both Islam and Christianity have a long history of trying to convert others. Judaism less so. This activity has been the cause of conflict and violence in the past and presents a paradox for the strictly observant. If you believe fervently in your religion, is it not natural to proselytise? At the same time, part of you might feel you should respect the beliefs of others, live and let live.

Within faith groups there are attempts to change the minds of co-religionists: High Church, Low Church; Orthodox, Catholic; Salafi Islam, mainstream Islam; Ultra-Orthodox Jews, Liberal Jews; perhaps live and let live is the only practical way forward; live and let live and enjoy the diversity.
