- science [Origin: Latin scientia 'knowledge', from scire 'to know']

- Someone who is con·sci·en·tious /kɔnʃi'enʃəs/ is very careful to do their work properly.
In common terms, conscience is often described as leading to feelings of remorse when a person commits an act that conflicts with their moral values. An individual's moral values and their dissonance with familial, social, cultural and historical interpretations of moral philosophy are considered in the examination of cultural relativity in both the practice and study of psychology.
Religious views of conscience usually see it as linked to a morality inherent in all humans, to a beneficent universe and/or to divinity. Common secular or scientific views regard the capacity for conscience as probably genetically determined, with its subject probably learned or imprinted as part of a culture.
Commonly used metaphors for conscience include the "voice within", the "inner light", or even Socrates' reliance on what the Greeks called his "daimōnic sign [宫; 星座]", an averting inner voice heard only when he was about to make a mistake. Conscience is a concept in national and international law, is increasingly conceived of as applying to the world as a whole, has motivated numerous notable acts for the public good and been the subject of many prominent examples of literature, music and film.
- Demonic means coming from or belonging to a demon or being like a demon.
- demon /ˈdi:mən/ [Origin: daemon 'evil spirit', from Greek daimon]

Charles Darwin considered that conscience evolved in humans to resolve conflicts between competing natural impulses - some about self-preservation but others about safety of a family or community; the claim of conscience to moral authority emerged from the "greater duration of impression of social instincts" in the struggle for survival. In such a view, behavior destructive to a person's society (either to its or to the persons it comprises) is bad or "evil". Thus, conscience can be viewed as an outcome of those biological drives that prompt humans to avoid provoking fear or contempt in others; being experienced as guilt and shame in differing ways from society to society and person to person. A requirement of conscience in this view is the capacity to see ourselves from the point of view of another person.
Contemporary scientists in evolutionary biology seek to explain conscience as a function of the brain that evolved to facilitate altruism within societies.
Attempts have been made by neuroscientists to locate the free will necessary for what is termed the 'veto' of conscience over unconscious mental processes in a scientifically measurable awareness of an intention to carry out an act occurring 350-400 microseconds after the electrical discharge known as the 'readiness potential.'
- Free will is the ability to choose between different possible courses of action unimpeded.
- The Bereitschaftspotential or BP (from German, "readiness potential"), also called the pre-motor potential or readiness potential (RP), is a measure of activity in the motor cortex and supplementary motor area of the brain [大脑的运动皮层和辅助运动区] leading up to voluntary muscle movement.
Jacques Pitrat claims that some kind of artificial conscience is beneficial in artificial intelligence systems to improve their long-term performance and direct their introspective processing.
- Introspective people spend a lot of time examining their own thoughts, ideas, and feelings.
Albert Einstein, as a self-professed [自称的] adherent of humanism and rationalism, viewed an enlightened religious person as one whose conscience reflects that he "has, to the best of his ability, liberated himself from the fetters [桎梏zhìgù] of his selfish desires and is preoccupied with thoughts, feelings and aspirations to which he clings because of their super-personal value." Einstein often referred to the "inner voice" as a source of both moral and physical knowledge: "Quantum mechanics is very impressive. But an inner voice tells me that it is not the real thing. The theory produces a good deal but hardly brings one closer to the secrets of the Old One. I am at all events [in any case, 无论如何] convinced that He does not play dice."
