In summary, conscience refers to an individual's moral sense of right and wrong, which is subjective and guides behavior and decision-making. Whether or not humans are born with a conscience is debated, but it can change over time and is influenced by factors such as upbringing, religion, and personal experiences. While some believe following one's conscience is always right, others argue there may be instances where it can lead to harm or go against societal norms and laws.
