However, there has been at least two times when she breaks down and tell me that she cannot be my gf because of her religion.

Alarm bells are ringing, dude. You are dating someone who has already tried to break up with me twice within the first month. Unless you see a realistic possibility of fixing the basic issue that is causing this, that's a horrible, emotionally destructive relationship you have in prospect.

So yeah what's your advice, should I stick with her until everything explodes, should I accept her invitation to her church if she asks, SHOULD I CONVERT MYSELF AND THROW AWAY MY DECADENT WAY OF LIFE?

I definitely would advise you to not convert for her. It's pretty clear that you wouldn't consider doing so if not for her, which means that you'd probably resent it. She might also realise that you're doing it just to be with her, and if she takes her religion seriously, she probably wouldn't be happy about that.
You guys are already in what seems to be a very unstable relationship, and the only way to make it more stable is to neutralise the contentious issue. She probably won't recant her faith for you, and while you might convert, it seems like a bad idea.
If you're the kind of guy who can stand for a relationship to be just about today, then that might be fine. Stick with it, enjoy her company, enjoy the relationship for what it is. If you're the kind of guy who has to believe there could be a future in the relationship to make it worthwhile, then you might as well jump ship now. These issues aren't going away in any mutually satisfactory manner, and sooner or later the breakup will become permanent.
I think I just effectively paraphrased Crash, but it wasn't intentional. I just happen to agree with him without having really read his post prior to writing my own. He covered the nuances far better than I did.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
