Waddabout religious conversion? Br. Jed doesn't speak to me either, but
that's not to say his rhetoric (such as it is) doesn't convert. Or, on a
favorit color level, advertising attempts to convert our fave raves--in
running shoes, soda pop, breakfast cereals--all the time. Ok: Nike over
Converse isn't so much a matter of faith but people love to place matters
of "taste" off-limits to rhetoric--in the same place they put matters of
faith.
