What the christ. No-one cares if you convert to a religion. It would be seen as kind of weird since conversion is not something that's done here to anywhere near the extent of the US.
Bingo. America seems to have a great difficulty in understanding how unreligious, particularly amongst young people, Europe is. It's painful.
Yes, also some Americans can't seem to comprehend that despite that, a lot of people here like to associate themselves, if only nominally, if a religio-cultural identity regardless of what they 'believe'.
Do most non-religious Irishmen call themselves Catholic if asked about their religion? Here almost everybody are members of the (former) State Church (mostly as they can't be bothered to leave), but still I think few of those not believing in God would declare themselves Christians.
