Ladies and gentlemen:

Too many times to recall, I have seen something like the following mistake in print: "I would never (take some action), because I have a conscious." This is wrong.

The word you mean when you want to flog your moral worth is conscience, as in "I would never vote for Hillary Clinton for president, because I have a conscience."

The word you are misusing is "conscious." That word indicates a physical state of awareness of one's surroundings: "The hippy was still conscious after smoking vast quantities of marijuana." Saying "I have a conscious" is INCORRECT. It is as if you said "I have an awake."

Use these words correctly from now on. It's good for your conscience, and it will also prove to others that you are fully conscious of the world about you.
