Question

Why do we have to educate our conscience

Answer 1

Answer:

For Butler the conscience is God-given guide and therefore authoritative and automatic as it 'magically exerts itself… ... without being consulted”, identifying the path we should follow. As a result of our instinctive recognition, there is an obligation to act this way.

Answer 2

Good conscience is needed among all human beings. Since moral education cannot be given to all, promotion of reasonable norms and values at family, community and social level can be effective for formation of good conscience and its reflection in behaviours among others
