They have an Old Testiment, New Testiment and (this is the brilliant part) a Final Testiment. (no Penultiment there!!!) Levidicus (an outmoded patriarchal piece of doodoo in my humble opinion) which is common to all 3, makes it clear - If you change religions you are damned!!!. Now, this includes changing between one "one god" type of religion to another. Your parents, or others who care about you, are doing you a favour by stoning you to death if you reject whichever true faith they subscribe to.
That still does not mean that every Muslim will automatically put their children to death if they lose their "honour".
Every religion has its spectrum of fundamentalism.
There are Roman Catholics in Latin America who would probably disown or even kill their children for converting to Islam.

The New Testament renders Leviticus redundant.
