The Japanese word for "parents" is 両親 and the word for "conscience" is 良心. If you're reading, you can't mix them up because the characters are different.
However, they are both pronounced "ryoushin," exactly the same way.
Japanese people claim this is a coincidence, but I say nope, it's the voice of your parents, eternally telling you to be good.
Agreed. It's the Voice of God the Eternal Father speaking in the heart and Conscience of every man and woman. Christ confirms all this as He repeatedly teaches, in essence: "Do Good, there are Great Rewards for it in Heaven"; "don't do evil, there are penalties for doing so". Almost as if God were continually saying to us, "Be Good, Little Children, Be Good", that Earth may be more like a Heaven of Love rather than become a Hell-Hole of Hatred through human free choice and bad men like Darwin and Marx.
