From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.44 :   [ gcide ]

  Convert \Con"vert\, n.
     1. A person who is converted from one opinion or practice to
        another; a person who is won over to, or heartily
        embraces, a creed, religious system, or party, in which he
        has not previously believed; especially, one who turns
        from the controlling power of sin to that of holiness, or
        from unbelief to Christianity.
        [1913 Webster]
  
              The Jesuits did not persuade the converts to lay
              aside the use of images.              --Bp.

        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. A lay friar or brother, permitted to enter a monastery for
        the service of the house, but without orders, and not
        allowed to sing in the choir.
  
     Syn: Proselyte; neophyte.
  
     Usage: Convert, Proselyte, Pervert. A convert is one
            who turns from what he believes to have been a decided
            error of faith or practice. Such a change may relate
            to religion, politics, or other subjects. properly
            considered, it is not confined to speculation alone,
            but affects the whole current of one's feelings and
            the tenor of his actions. As such a change carries
            with it the appearance of sincerity, the term convert
            is usually taken in a good sense. Proselyte is a term
            of more ambiguous use and application. It was first
            applied to an adherent of one religious system who had
            transferred himself externally to some other religious
            system; and is also applied to one who makes a similar
            transfer in respect to systems of philosophy or
            speculation. The term has little or no reference to
            the state of the heart. Pervert is a term of recent
            origin, designed to express the contrary of convert,
            and to stigmatize a person as drawn off perverted from
            the true faith. It has been more particulary applied
            by members of the Church of England to those who have
            joined the Roman Catholic Church.
