About This Quote
The existence of guilty sense is soimportant in education and religion. Today, human beings are becoming more and more sensitive to the sense of guilt. The feeling of guilt has been a strong factor in the development of morals and ethics, but its exact role in morality is not clear. There are arguments that suggest that guilt does not have an effect on an individual's moral behavior, but instead acts as a means for changing one's behavior by making it feel uncomfortable. Thus, people with a guilty conscience have an incentive to avoid that feeling. Those who have a strong conscience may feel guilty simply because they want to avoid being caught.
