'Conscientious objector' = 'người phản đối theo đúng lương tâm' -> nghĩa là người từ chối nhập ngũ vì cho rằng điều đó trái đạo lý (a person who for reasons of conscience objects to serving in the armed forces).

Ví dụ
The Israeli army discharged conscientious objector Ayelet Brachfeld on Tuesday after imprisoning her for 100 days.

A South Korean conscientious objector was sentenced to a jail term Tuesday, despite the recent Constitutional Court order for the government to introduce civilian forms of service for them.

The film highlights a moment in Ali's career where he was set to stage a world comeback. He had been recently released from prison after refusing to join the Vietnam War as a conscientious objector.

The latest sentence is also against the United Nations Human Rights Council, which recognizes the right of everyone to have conscientious objection to military service as a “legitimate exercise of the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion.”
