The conscience clause is a legislative provision granting a person the right to refuse to perform an activity which is in agreement with legal regulations but in disagreement with a person’s conscience. Conscience is understood as knowing what is good and what is bad with the urge to do what is good. It is argued in this article that the conscience clause in fact refers not to conscience in its proper sense but to the set of moral convictions held by an individual and felt to be in agreement with his/her conscience. As a result, the so-called conscience clause in fact obscures the authentic voice of conscience. This article proposes a limited understanding of the legal concept of the conscience clause as a provision which overtly refers to the moral convictions held by an individual.

When people vest a position with moral conviction, that is, a sense that the position is grounded in fundamental right or wrong, good or bad, they tend to be particularly intolerant of those who disagree. Psychological states that mitigate or augment the effect of moral conviction on tolerance are lesser known. The present research investigated the immediate consequences of mindfulness and mindlessness (cognitive depletion) on the relationship between moral conviction and preferred social distance. Consistent with hypotheses, moral conviction did not predict preferred social distance in a mindfulness condition (mindfulness meditation), predicted greater preferred social distance in a mindlessness condition (cognitive depletion), and predicted marginally greater preferred social distance in a control condition (no manipulation). Findings suggest that adopting mindful orientation toward people with different moral views may foster acceptance, while adopting a mindless orientation may foster greater intolerance.
