Proselytism

Still from a video made during an official religious gathering in Bagram where chaplains discussed with GIs what to do with a shipment of bibles one GI had been sent by his congregation back home. A GI filmed the meeting, and the video was eventually broadcast by Al Jazeera. American spokesmen claimed the video was misleading, claimed that chaplains had, in the end, confiscated the bibles, which were, eventually, burned.

Proselytism /ˈprɒsəlᵻˌtɪzəm/ is the act of attempting to convert people to another religion or opinion. The word proselytize is derived from the Greek language prefix προσ- (pros-, toward) and the verb ἔρχομαι (érchomai, to come) in the form of προσήλυτος (prosélytos, a new comer). Historically in the Koine Greek Septuagint and New Testament, the word proselyte denoted a gentile who was considering conversion to Judaism. Though the word proselytism originally referred to Early Christianity (and earlier Gentiles such as God-fearers), it now refers to the attempt of any religion or religious individuals to convert people to their beliefs, or any attempt to convert people to a different point of view, religious or not. Proselytism is illegal in some countries.
