Do people have different consciences? If so, how would we tell*?

One way we can tell is that different people say different things are wrong. In order to say their consciences differ, we have to assume that the things they say are wrong would trouble their own consciences. I think that's a reasonable assumption.

There's good evidence that some people lack conscience, pshychopaths for example.
