Do Jews think that a person's conscience is the most important source of moral authority?
No. Judaism recognizes that "common sense" and "conscience" are only the set of prejudices acquired during the first few years of life, and that human instincts are just as self-centered as those of any other living creature. The crucial standard of moral and ethical behavior is the written system furnished from without.
It's important to recognize that anybody of whom it can be said in the 21st Century that "He has a good heart" didn't get that way because he was born with some genetic predisposition to high moral instincts, but because of the system of ethics and morality he absorbed as he grew.
Indeed, "morals" are not instinctive altogether ! They're an evolved system that one has to learn.
