What's the word?
that means to convert someone from one religion (or maybe none at all) to another?
Could someone be kind enough to tell me? I think it starts with an "a". Thanks a lot.

Hi guys,
spelling: proselytize
It doesn't actually mean 'to convert'. It means 'to try to convert'.

Tanit"Proselytise" would be fine, though. Right?According to the http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=63557&dict=CALD, that would be the usual spelling in the UK.
