  JWs: An Aversion to ``Conversion?"

  by Room 215 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is particularly addressed to those of you long-timers.

  it seems that the society has always deliberately avoided the use of the word `conversion"" and ``convert(s)'' in its literature.

  yet it's clearly a scriptural term and would seem to fit their aggressive prosyletizing mentality quite well.. any ideas what it is that they find objectionable?

  however the word proselytize has developed into
  a word that often involves 'forced' or other negatives
  ways to change someones faith. Comments from the audience
  stated that we are indeed involved in converting and warning people,
