Is this a way to connect to your glorious past or to move away from a forced religion??
Different reason for everyone. For my family, and me personally, it's the fact that we HAVE ZEROOOOOOOOOOOO belief in Islam. It's shocking how little we know and care about Islam. From my father's generation down, nobody in the family (and I mean nobody, cousins, cousin's cousins etc...) has any love for Islam nor do we even bother learning anything about it. My parents lived in Iran for 4+ decades, most of the years spent under a theocratic Islamic regime, without even knowing how to pray. My parents probably can't even name the prophets. So when you mix this with the regime that we have, conversion becomes many things: salvation, protest, nostalgia about the past...
