But one definition of treason is also: "the action of betraying someone or something".
Your posts 9, 97, 102, 161,312, 464, and 499 are what I'm talking about. Not to mention the disgusting and appalling manner in which you responded to one point in post 366.
Maybe you should have used the word "sedition." It definitely fits.
I haven't read the US laws to see what definitions exist, but surely some laws have been written to make things about treason more specific than what is in the Constitution.

It's my understanding that Mike is technically correct, you cannot be charged at the Federal level with treason except in very specific wartime scenarios. I think it was structured this way so as not to make "treason" something to club your political enemies with. In reality what's in the Constitution is VERY specific, we have to be at war, and you have to give aid and comfort to the enemy, e.g., passing information or $$ that would help us lose and them win.
That is not to say that there isn't a colloquial definition of treason that can't apply for argument's sake, that you can't make a moral argument even if it's technically legal. A LOT of things in life are legal but immoral.
And as you point out that doesn't speak to sedition.
When Masonic ideas and Freemasons themselves stop infiltrating the Catholic Church in order to subvert its teachings, then I will end my vigilance.
