Conviction

Often seen as the sexual kink of philosophies in the eyes of society (often used to describe to religion, politics, drugs, war, rock & roll, and rap), a conviction is the opposite of eviction, which is the physical (or psychological) exodus of self or ideas. Meaning, it is not a belief one can simply let go of, and the more honest people from every culture and background often die for it, or live long enough to speak against it! The one's that gain the most ground, are the one's that kill the least... at least, supposedly...
"Mormon's are *oh SO* convicted that they send their own adolescent descendants to become missionaries."

"According to Wikipedia, Rage Against the Machine band members often referred to themselves as 'Guilty Parties' for each album. If we were to take them at their word, they are aware of the weight of their convictions when they wrote their songs... that's why they chose to sing it instead of the alternative..."

"One great irony in science is it acknowledges it's limitations, and yet scientists defend it's despite being bound to the convictions of their own minds and bodies. Their convictions are just as strong as the religions they claim to hate, and the religions hate them back with equal hypocrisy."
