This lecture explores the relationship between conscience and universally preferable behavior (UPB), highlighting the challenges of moral teachings in childhood. The speaker discusses how children develop their conscience through empathy and the influence of authority figures, emphasizing the need for consistency in moral principles. The impact of hypocrisy in moral teachings is examined, leading to disillusionment as children mature. Ultimately, the lecture advocates for a personal understanding of morality that prioritizes individual conscience over imposed moral rules.
