Lying with Integrity

Liar.. Liar.. Liar.. LIAR.. liar. Why LIE?

..IS THE ABILITY TO LIE A GOOD QUALITY?

WOULDN'T IT BE A BETTER PLACE IF EVERYONE TOLD THE TRUTH, & ONLY THE TRUTH?!
What makes people lie so much?..

What is a lie?... Lying is a form of deception, but not all forms of deception are lies.

Lying is mainly the most common wrong acts that people carry out.. some reasearchers have stated ' lying is an unvoidable part of human nature'..

Why is lying wrong?..
Personally lying is wrong as lying diminishes trust between human beings!!, if everyone had just lied constantly and didnt tell the truth then life would bceome so difficult as nobody could be trusted and nothing you heard or read could be trusted, you would have to find everything out for yourself. Lying is bad because it's not what GOOD PEOPLE do!!, lying simply corrupts the liar!.

What are the consequences of lying?!..

-They can no longer make an informed choice about the issue concerned
-They may make a decision that they would not otherwise have made

THE LIAR... his/her long-term credibility is at risk, he/she will probally suffer harm if he/she found out.. if he/she found out, poeple are more likely to lie to him/her.. If she/he has lied, they will be likely to be trusted in the future!!.. his/her own view of his INTEGRITY is damaged!!

Reasons for lying?

'It's tied with SELF-ESTEEM'

People often lie about things trying to feel better about themselves

Do they do it because they don't trust themselves?...or because they are too weak, too afraid, too lonely?

I personally think thereis nothing wrong in telling small lies, if it saves you from upsetting someone or offending them..

Everyone LIES. you'd be a liar to say you didnt. Because the fact remains that everyone lies.

With lying.. people should not there limits!!

  1. you made some good points there and the main reason why people lie is because they wanna look good infront of people but then again that could be because of peer pressure so that they "fit" in with tha crowd..i agree with yah YOU RIGHT..VERY GOOD !
