9121. From these examples one may deduce what people who do not have conscience are like; they are recognized as being the opposite. Those among them who for the sake of some kind of gain make what is wrong look like what is right, and what is bad look like what is good, and vice versa, do not have conscience. Those among them who know that what they do is wrong or bad, but still do it, do not know what conscience is; and if they are taught what it is they have no wish to know it. This is what people who do everything for selfish and worldly reasons are like.
