Jews don't believe in the afterlife, do they?
And I thought it was only orthodox jews that got uppity about conversion?

Jews believe in "the World to Come,"
that is one of the pillars of their faith. This isn't necessarily the same thing as having immortal souls, although they have also come to believe in this, it isn't original. It gets complex.

I don't know what the Liberal stance is on conversion but even from my own perspective it's unnecessary. It's their tradition and their culture, it would seem like butting in. It's only the theology and metaphysics that has truth value, not the customs.
