Thought of the Day: Conscience Isn’t Dictated By Majority Rule

“The one thing that doesn’t abide by majority rule is a person’s conscience.” -Harper Lee, writer (28 Apr 1926-2016)

Atticus Finch states this in Chapter 11 of To Kill A Mockingbird.

I think I would rephrase this to “Neither science or conscience are subject to majority rule”.
