Conscious awareness ONLY comes after unconscious mental processing. An analogy to your awareness of anything might be like the headline versus the article. Your unconscious mind has studied, weighed and argued to death the content of a 3000 word article, all that rises to conscious awareness is the headline.
Your FIRST response in terms of moral intuition ... Note "intuition".. not "conscious thinking". Is 100% unconscious and instantaneous. All that might rises to conscious awareness is "good" or "bad". Your conscious mind then takes over and creates a story - either based in experience and known facts, or in the absence of some or all of the facts, it will make something up.
