conscience

After pondering for years on the cliche religion, i  understand it to be a sense of contrition that acts like a centrifugal force pulling us back from the throws of our impulsive urges.Conscience is probably the only master that governs us...i guess that is the reason why a cannibal tribe of Papua eats on the brain of their enemies believing on the custom of inculcating the energies of their enemies on them, just like we consume carrot or apple to consume the vitamins in it.Their customs and their religion manupulate their conscience in such a course that they permit their appetite to feed on humans.
