Series Introduction:-
I decided on another starting of a series... (Do wonder if I would ever continue certain series... CA is still long untouched) This one is about how one could convert a human, conversion as in any way. Well, not exactly a guide on how to convert, rather some information about the topic. Afterall, humans are hard creatures. Without instinct and gripping strongly to logic, we can be skeptical, ignorant or just plain stupid (In fashion to throw the converter into a baptism of irritation, those without ice-melting patience that is) Okay....... Enough crap.. Lets start.
_____________________________________________________

--The Probe: To break in, first we need to gather background knowledge. Know your foe--

Humans have certain things that we have to clarify and get undoubted from before striking a nice blow. Say,

Paragdiams

_Of Your Implications
What are you talking this way about? What are your intentions for? He would probaly have this wall which guards him from being converted from the fact that he thinks "oh damn, another lame moron trying to convert me". Most guys are smart enough to know when you are using propaganda or hitting on a soft spot. I know three levels of such a persuasion. Level 1 is directly telling the guy about stuff, stright talk; no beating of bush. Level 2 is showing the guy, not to your want, that you are moving towards the topic. Body language, strong connotative words etc. Level 3 is either falsely or truthfully having a civillised disscussion with the guy. (So-called) Get into harsh subjects with him, give the viewpoints and etc. And not to force him totally off in any argumentative way but be firm in your beliefs and start slowing building up a forte.

_Of Your Identity/stereotype and what you probaly would try to do
Self-explanatory I suppose? Guys assume that your probaly gonna do a whole routine of something, maybe he seen it so damn many times or know the subject so damned well but been dennying it all the time. A good move in attacking this point would be exactly asking this exact question to him, i.e. "I know you might have heard this a lot of times, but I'm different from the rest. I would not only present you the information, but also invite you to question. What is it that is holding you back?" A vague answer would mean you should press on futher, unless he uses the ultima of "its personal"

Mindset

_Generally...
All humans have different values and beliefs. To think about this properly, see this: No one in the whole world is seeing the exact same view as you now. That is, unless your looking at the same angle with the same configurated Television, but with the exception; you should get what I mean. Some might hold silent racism, a complex syndorme of the mind which needs them to perform some things, obsessive complusive behaviour, certain languages(body and verbal), etc.
So, think about it; the next person you are going to convert might have lost his family in a forest fire started by a white man, been rejected into a religious place for a specific reason, been brainwashed about certain ideas since young and had just lost his girlfriend in a car crash. There is no way a white guy could go up to him with a Bible and start with a catchline, " You waiting for your girlfriend?" Exactly people, things are always not so simple.... Never treat your treatments as such, i.e. don't underestimate them.

_Of your Subject
Take a religion for example, one guy would defintely have loads of prejudices and own set of beliefs of what its probaly about and why you guys practise such stuff. People whom just assume such things as "common" and in the end just say stuff like, "You go your way I go mine okay? Lets just give each other respect." are annoyingly difficult. There will be extreme barriers and stuff as such.

-- Epilogu[e] --
Treat the conversion of someone like the rewriting of a program code. All humans follow a certain complex program, all might have equal lines of scripting and stuff; but there are lots of differences. Much lines of code are added through influence and development. What conversion is about is actually attacking an already perfected and running code into something totally different, prehaps even overwriting much coding in the process. So, what one is actually doing when he is converting a person is actually very powerful work.

Footnotes:
Eh... watch out for episode 2? Oh well... One thing about my above is that I didn't actually went very deep into each aspect. I might take on one by one in future episodes...
