Well, I did ask you:

To which you replied:

2. So dealing solely with the dichotomy that the discussion was about, you agreed that thoughts alone could be used to consider someone a bad person.

1. As I said; we must consider them to be equal.

2. Sure did, but your feeble caveat was "If the thoughts were known". They could only be known through action; even if that action were nothing more than expressing the thoughts. 

You still have not provided an example where merely a person's thoughts make them a bad person. But at least Fred and Pat seem to see it your way; although, I'm not sure we can consider them an unbiased source.
