Maybe just asking the question is grounds for conviction.

con·vict Audio pronunciation of convicted ( P )

Pronunciation Key (kn-vkt) v. con·vict·ed, con·vict·ing, con·victs v. tr.

1. Law. To find or prove (someone) guilty of an offense or crime, especially by the verdict of a court: The jury convicted the defendant of manslaughter.
2. To show or declare to be blameworthy; condemn: His remarks convicted him of a lack of sensitivity.
3. To make aware of one's sinfulness or guilt.

I don't agree with bluepistolero's position, but it looks like he was speaking of definition #3 when he said "convicted", not #1.

Or he meant both. He hasn't bothered to clarify.

At one point I said that IF he were a Christian Reconstructionist he was equivalent to a KKK member. Since he deduced from my post that I called him a KKKer, I have to believe he is sympathetic to their cause. Actually it would be an insult to KKK members to call them Reconstructionists. Christian Reconstruction is worse.
