What Is Your Difinition Of Conscience by ezeonline2(m): 6:58pm On Dec 02, 2013
Conscience was derived from Latin conscientia (“knowledge within oneself”)
Conscience is an aptitude, faculty, intuition or judgment that assists in distinguishing right from wrong. Moral judgment may derive from values or norms (principles and rules). In psychological terms conscience is often described as leading to feelings of remorse when a human commits actions that go against his/her moral values and to feelings of rectitude or integrity when actions conform to such norms
Conscience is that thing that tells tells u whether ur action is wright of wrong.
My qustion is that is it possible for a person to kill his consscience? And if its actually dead how can it be revived?
And also tell us what u understand by the word conscience
