In To Kill a Mockingbird, Addicks, a lawyer, was met with hostility and ridicule by white people for defending Tom, a black boy. Even his two children, Jim and kuster, were bullied by their classmates at school.
The brothers and sisters are confused. Everyone was one-sided and did not support Addicks in defending Tom. Why did father take this case?
Father saw their doubts and told his younger brothers and sisters that Tom's case touched the essence of human conscience and morality to some extent. If he doesn't help this man, he will have no face to visit God in church.
Father also told them that there is one thing that cannot follow the principle of conformity, and that is people's conscience.
Indeed, conscience is the moral bottom line that we need to stick to. Once you cross the line, you will be spurned by the world.
I remember the news that a girl jumped to her death in the media two years ago.
She sat on the balcony on the eighth floor of the department store for a long time before jumping down from the upstairs. A fireman gripped her hand tightly and kept shouting, "Hang on!"
There were onlookers shouting downstairs: "Why didn't you jump?" Others started the live broadcast on Aauto faster, and they left sarcastic messages to all the girls in the live broadcast.
Finally, the girl jumped down and became a sweet soul.
Look, those who boo are heartless people, and their behavior is undoubtedly no different from suicide by handing a knife.
It can be seen that once people's thoughts deviate from the normal track, the "evil" in their hearts will prevail. As for conscience, the dog has eaten by now.
It doesn't matter anyway. I'm just saying.
So, what does a person lack? You can't live without conscience. Because this is the moral bottom line that a person must abide by.
