Im just trying to see your reactions. this forum is too opinionated, given the polarized racial and religious composition, to ask for any advice.

You have already made up your mind even before starting this thread in the first place. You're starting this thread so that you would feel good if ppl agree with your opinion. More of an ego boost I might say.

Edit : Just want to add. Can you truthfully say that you're interested in her converting to Islam because of the beauty of the religion, or because you want something in it as well?

At some parts of your posts you said that you want her to see for herself what Islam has to offer, not against her free will. Then you said you might marry her if she did become a muslim. Then you said why should you tell her parents if she's already interested in your religion.

Conflicting needs, eh? Sounds to me like in the end, its actually what you want out of it. If you have no interest in marrying her, and want her to know about Islam more, then that's probably something normal (Christians do that quite often to me too), the true purpose of you wanting to tell her about your religion. But so far from your posts, it doesnt seem like that.

Seriously speaking, most of the time people would get up and do something because there's something in it for them.

Obviously she isn't much of a Christian if she could get so interested in the Quran after reading a few lines and deciding to leave her faith and join yours. There is nothing wrong with religions, it's just that people think too much about it.

"My beliefs are right, yours is most definitely wrong"

It's basically a bunch of hogwash. My gf's buddhist. My dad's buddhist. My mother's Christian and so am I. What's the big deal? As long as you lead a good life and you don't do anything wrong.

You claim that the Christian GOD and your GOD is the same. So why does she need to convert then? You obviously have your own MO in this.

Indeed, you will be the cause between the riff of that girl and her parents, and possible the others in her life (since she's such a great Christian)

I suggest you walk away.

*Who put the idea of Islam into her head anyway?*

Think about it. It's easy to say "oh, if it doesn't work out she can go back to being a Christian" and we'll remain close friends. That's ridiculous. Things like these change a person.

You're the man. You convey things much better than me.
