I have no doubt groups of people refine a conscience for their society. So what happens when that conscience goes against my conscience? Do I run and hide and hope the opposition goes away? Or do I fight the overwhelming odds that seems almost suicidal while listening to the still small voice that I know?

Any discussion appreciated, particularly if there is a corporate conscience, who decides what it is and by what standards and rules they are enforced.

Public schools come to mind.

I agree, animal cruelty taught to young minds without the teaching of stewardship is lop sided.
Or when there is a mass shooting and before the smoke clears its taught guns are bad, with no emphasis on individual responsibility, but rather punish the entire population.

Collectivism will usher in a world governance, with no borders, only the human race, and the Utopia will follow. This seems to be conscience of many.

"It only takes one generation to change a society".

This thread should be titled "Deep thoughts by Jack Handey".

We could do a "lower expectations" thread too. Bahaha. Back when SNL was still funny.

Whoever has has the most ordinance in numbers (power) is the conscience....If that's not your conscience, you fight until you win or die against any odds, because you wouldn't really want to live any other way.

Or, you suck it up & be their slave....Question really is, what are you made of?

The blind implementation of good intentions without any thought of unintended consequences or impact on others Rights.

People in the past spoke with their wallets but today any kind of sacrifice is not in the cards for many folks don’t have the commitment to anything but themselves just a fact.

Perhaps life has been too comfortable for too long?
