Topic: Is lying OK? | |
---|---|
I'm new here so I'll keep this short. I agree that lying is an integral part of our lives, part of our need for it has been the ability to reason out with enough time any lie in many circumstances. That said, is it good to lie about that "friend" of yours to your spouse/sig. other? We could draw anecdotal evidence all day long for both sides, but the fact is that lying is something that is called for in certain situations at the discretion of the potential liar.
Also, diverting conversation is a cheap trick not that much above lying. I think it could actually cause MORE stress in a relationship by leaving loose ends and emotions to build up. While one good lie can fix that, giving both people some peace of mind, however fake it is. That wasn't short at all... |

Sweet!!! It made three pages!!!
Great discussion everyone, some really good back and forth there. This proves my theory that the why you think about lying, or being dishonest in general, really just depends on how you were raised. There are always exceptions, but I can pretty much guarantee that the folks that say 'no lying period' spent alot of time in church as a child. But wait... I don't want this to turn into some religious debate, just trust me, that will hurt more than it will help. Now, I think it is time for me to answer my own question. First, I don't really own anything, just alot of music and dvds, books and video games, and a sweet computer. I don't have a car, or house, or that much money, so I guess it would be a waste to make out a will. I would probably tell my mom to sell all my crap. I'm not really A car guy, but I'd try to help my dad work on his, things like that. As for the other scene... I'd say, if you're going to ask me a stupid question I'm going to give you a stupid answer. You know damn well, before you even put that dress on that you'd look big in it, you just need a second oppinion. Don't get mad at me because you bought a dress you couldn't squeeze into. Seriously though, I would never say that, but I WISH I could. |

Seriously think bout it... What if I posed as A doctor and then lie and told you that you had one day to live? Sure, that's a REALLY BAD joke to play on anyone, but just think of all the good things you would do in that one day. Or think about all the things that could go bad that day? What about someone who would just end their life that day? What if the person went out and committed a crime spree? Lying is NEVER good. |

" ... There are always exceptions, but I can pretty much guarantee that the folks that say 'no lying period' spent alot of time in church as a child. But wait...

" At the risk of bein' kinda semi-rude, how come this comment had to be put out there to diss everyone who DOESN'T think lying is okay ... ? It has nothing to do with how much 'church time' they put in ... I'm agnostic, and I still don't agree that lying is okay ... I"m kinda curious to see how many others you prolly alienated with that shot ... |

OK patriot... it doesn't matter what religion you are now, it's how you were raised. I'm not too familiar with the in's and out's of being agnostic, but bet you were still raised a christian.
