ABSTRACT

In our culture, we value the fact that each of us was born into a particular religion and has practiced it throughout our lives. We reside in a society that respects our liberty to make our own decisions. People have been seen to change their religious affiliations. It’s perfectly acceptable to convert for reasons like “sudden faith in a particular religion” and “marriage to a particular caste or religion.” Much psychological research on conversion has mostly focused on how each individual's conversion impacts them. However, religious conversion changes society as a whole as well as individuals. According to studies, conversion affects a person’s identity and causes social change. Based on the scanty literature, we can conclude that social transformation results from group or community conversion.
