Blog Post 5: Reflection on Conscience

1)
The quote says that it does not make a difference if you make a right or wrong choice. And that your conscience does not know what is right or wrong it just tells you what you want to do. I don’t agree with this because if does matter if you do the right thing or not. And your conscience does know what is right or wrong and it won’t just tell you what you want to do.

2)
One example of when Huck’s conscience influenced him is when he thought about steeling and then he thought of what the widow would do and he decided not to steel it. Another example of when Huck’s conscience influenced him is when he thought about letting the boat with the people on it go down the river he thought of what the widow would do and then he did not do it. A third example of when Huck’s conscience influenced him is when he was not going to help Jim. And then his conscience told him to do it because he would have a better life if he escaped.

3)
When my conscience stopped me from making a bad decision was when my friends wanted me to go somewhere with them even though my mom had said that I could not go. But I really wanted to go and my friends were pressuring me to go. But I thought about what would happen if I went and in the end I did not go because my conscience told me not to got against my moms words.
