Salaam alaikum,
My friend, you and I are both in the very same situation.
I am an American Christan, but I have great interest in Islam and put my faith in Islam.
My parents are die-hard Christians and also dissaprove of anything Islamic.
I read the Quran almost every single night, and I visit this forum to learn as much as possible.
I would really like to revert to Islam, but I am very worried about the difficulties I would have (my family, western culture, career, friends, etc).
Insha Allah you and I will both be able to over-come this and embrace what God has planned for us.
Every thing that happens, and all that does not happen, does so by the will of God. You would not have a spark of interest of Islam, and you would not be reading the Quran if God did not want you to. But He wants you to - do not turn away from the sign he has given you.
I understand your situation exactly, and I know just how difficult it is.
There is much to be learned, and this is a great place for it!
Perhaps my thread "Questions for Muslims" in the "Non-Muslim" section will be of some use to you.
