The term "tyranny of the weaker brother" is often used to describe a situation where a person with a more sensitive conscience imposes their personal convictions on others, leading a congregation to limit its freedoms unduly. The concept stems from Biblical passages like Romans 14 and 1 Corinthians 8, where Paul advises believers to be considerate of those with weaker consciences so as not to cause them to stumble.
