forced conversion

A quick definition of forced conversion:

Forced conversion is when someone is made to change their beliefs or religion against their will. It is wrong to force someone to believe something they don't want to. It's like if someone made you eat broccoli even though you hate it. It's not fair and it's not right.

A more thorough explanation:

Forced conversion is when someone is made to change their beliefs or religion against their will. This is different from voluntary conversion, where someone chooses to change their beliefs or religion on their own.

Forced conversion can happen in many ways. For example, someone might be threatened with violence or death if they don't convert. Or they might be offered money or other incentives to convert. In some cases, people are forced to convert as part of a larger political or social agenda.

One example of forced conversion is the Spanish Inquisition, which took place in the 15th and 16th centuries. During this time, the Catholic Church in Spain forced Jews and Muslims to convert to Christianity or face persecution and death. Many people were tortured or killed for refusing to convert.

Another example of forced conversion is the treatment of Native Americans in the United States. When European settlers arrived in North America, they often forced Native Americans to convert to Christianity and abandon their traditional beliefs and practices. This was part of a larger effort to assimilate Native Americans into European culture.

Forced conversion is a violation of human rights and is not acceptable in any form. Everyone has the right to practice their own religion or beliefs without fear of persecution or coercion.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
