Conscience is an inner feeling or voice viewed as acting as guide to the rightness or wrongness of one’s behaviour. Some people call it our moral compass.
Everyone of us has a conscience. Thank goodness for that, or you can imagine how messy the world will be. However, not everyone has the same degree of conscience. Some has a stronger conscience and some has a weaker conscience. That is why, although the world is not perfect, it is still in a reasonable state of saneness.
