You were mentioning that you didn't know what arguments to bring. Do you need to? Wouldn't a simple "No thanks" suffice? Part of being an adult is having the will to go your own way...and your father would probably agree.
I still depend financially on him, and knowing him, he would most likely ask me why if I refuse.
Also, I've already told him today that I will do the conversion. Inside I'm still atheist, I will tell him that when I'll be financially stable. Then he will be more upset than he would if I refused the conversion, but I don't really care. He forces me to do alot of things I don't like and can be selfish, my mom is sometimes angry at him too. Granted, he does have qualities, he did nice things to me. And he is proud of me now, maybe I'll gain something out of this.
