La objeción de conciencia (OC) es una figura jurÃdica excepcional. Es que, como principio general, el sistema jurÃdico demanda y aspira a la obediencia de las normas por todas las personas obligadas. La OC es este curioso caso donde el Estado permite a una persona exceptuarse de una obligación jurÃdica, debido a sus convicciones morales, siempre y cuando cumpla con los requisitos, procedimientos fijados y no dañe derechos de terceros. Surgió como una forma de proteger minorÃas religiosas o culturales, usualmente ignoradas por las previsiones de las leyes. Es asà que existe hoy una disonancia descomunal entre lo previsto por los textos y la práctica: la versión de la OC como acto reflexivo, sincero y humilde de una persona que hace parte de una minorÃa ha cedido frente a otros usos mucho más problemáticos y mucho menos éticos.
