1. Describe what is a person’s ‘conscience’.

A persons conscience is something in your mind that tells you what is good and bad and it also tells you what is right and what is wrong. It is like a little voice in there head telling you what you should do and how to act it. An example is that someone might tell you to steal something for them. You then say to yourself should i do it (the bad side) or should i not do it (the good side). So there is two sides, the good and then the bad.

2.Describe how a persons conscience works in making moral decisions. Explain the relationship between religion and conscience.

A persons conscience works by this little voice in your head when you are in a situation were if you should do it or not. This is why you should choose you decision wisely because there is no going back if you are happy with it or not. The difference between conscience and religion is that conscience is where you only have two options (good and bad) and you have to pick one of them to solve the situation. It is like following a path. One leads to fix the situation, the other leads to something else. Religion is when you follow the one path all the way to the end, even if it is good or bad.
