Abstract

The diversity of views on conversion and the conflict within talk about conversion leads us to believe that the vital question remains unanswered: What is conversion? Conversion is a functional word in most people’s religious vocabulary, but it has a host of meanings, and many who use the term are not able to clarify their meaning.

They are spelled out under their various headings below.
