Instead of judging my religion and choosing another one, more appealing to my taste, i have decided to judge my taste using the criteria of my religion. My taste pleaded guilty.

I never really had any religious belief, in spite of the coercive indoctrination I endured as a youth. I don't have it in me to believe. Some time ago, I gave up all pretense, i.e. the desire to 'believe in belief' as it were.

If you are referring to a simple choice to attend a different denomination within Christendom, one with relatively similar doctrines to your own, perhaps (say) to smooth out a marriage, I would say it is probably quite common. It seems to me when speaking of denominations there is a core set of beliefs, more or less shared by all, and then there are all the denomination-specific add-ons that distinguish one from another; so adaptation is probably not a huge problem.

(I realize I'm oversimplifying, as there may be any number of other reasons to change which don't involve a crisis of faith. I also acknowledge that there may be a gulf of differences even between certain sects in Christendom.)

Concerning a conversion from one major religion to another: I find the notion profoundly disturbing. How can you believe one thing today and something else tomorrow? Except in the case of coercion a.k.a. 'forced conversion', I can think of no justification for such a thing. To do so suggests a weakness of faith to start with.

Yes I have changed my religon. I was raised Catholic. But as I grew I became tired of the man doctrine. I found truth in reading Gods Word and found that the Catholic Church just didn't line up with scripture all the time. I follow no religon, I belong to a non-denomination fellowship and we strictly study the Bible, no man made laws. I AM HIS
