Why would someone follow a religion out of fear that it’s true?

After a few posts dealing with ulterior motives for religion, I would like to begin discussing real motives. Are there people who accept a faith for religious reasons?

Ever heard of fire and brimstone conversions? Missionaries often instill fear in the hearts of their subjects. They threaten terrible consequences for those who don’t convert. Don't all religions have consequences for non believers? If they do, why make a fear based conversion? By converting you are doomed by all other religions.

Do people convert because they are spooked by the emotions their missionaries instilled in them? Isn’t it coincidence as to which religion spooked them first?

If there is a G-d, don’t you think he knows how he created you? What if he created you in the correct religion? By you converting you are making a terible statement. If G-d intended you to convert, wouldn’t he provide sufficient evidence? Wouldn’t it be best to maintain status quo till you are sure what G-d wants? If G-d is just, wouldn’t he accept that you tired? Obviously you have to try.
