Forced conversions were never an anomaly in Christianity—they were a perfect expression of its underlying narcissism. The Christian mindset, rooted in absolute truth claims and the denial of all other worldviews, naturally lends itself to coercion. When you believe your belief system is the only valid one and that others must adopt it to be “saved,” you’re not just encouraged to convert others—you’re morally obligated to override their will. This isn’t compassion, it’s domination disguised as virtue. The historical record is soaked with this mentality: from the Inquisition to colonial missionary work, to the smug suburban evangelist who thinks handing out pamphlets is "saving souls." It's not love, it's control.

Even today, proselytization is treated as a spiritual duty, a desperate attempt to validate one’s own fragile faith by multiplying it. They need others to agree with them not because it helps others, but because it soothes the gnawing doubt inside. That’s why their conversions are never subtle, never respectful. It’s always a push, a guilt-trip, a fear tactic. Christianity’s insistence on aggressive proselytization is just the modern, sanitized face of the same old narcissism—this time wrapped in smiles and Bible verses instead of swords and inquisitors.
