    A person without a conscience is called a "sociopath". Sociopaths are able to emulate normal people - including acting morally. The difference is in the motivation. You or I might comfort a crying child because it was in our hearts to do so. A sociopath might do the same thing only because he thought it was expected of him - he considers things in terms of consequences.

      When it suits their best interests, or to be accepted by those who will be used or targeted later.
