conversion and proselytization
Conversion refers to the act of changing one's beliefs, opinions, or religious affiliation to adopt a completely different set of beliefs, opinions, or religious practices. It involves a personal transformation or change of heart. Proselytization, on the other hand, refers to the act of trying to persuade or convince individuals to convert to a different set of beliefs or religious faith. It often involves spreading the teachings, doctrines, or practices of a religious group in an attempt to gain followers.
