To blanketly say "lying is never good" is not something I can backup. I know there would be situations where lying could have benefits, even if I can't draw upon a realistic one right now. As Jumba from Lilo and Stitch said: Lies are the thread that old the T Shirt of society together.
Swerve Wrote:I think this thread is really stupid and only brings up rudimentary points when it comes to the phenomena of lying. The OP insinuates that he has only lied five times, which is probably a lie. Either that or he is delusional into honestly believing that he has only told five lies. It is possible that the OP has never had to really tolerate a collective work environment or has had to deal with other people. Most likely he is not counting fake pleasantries such as, "Wow Omni. That's a great point you make. Now listen to mine."
