I doubt anyone will come here anytime soon, but I just found out something.
ReplyDeleteA couple of us were talking, sometime during the first week, after one of the dozen theological arguments. We were talking about whether "conversionist" is a word, and we thought that it was. The definition in mind was "person who tries to convert people." It's not a word, but one of the definitions of "converter" is "person that converts something," which isn't quite the same, but it works well enough.
This is a long comment.
