Do you think it's EVER ok to lie? plain and simple.eveyone has .

that we all have, too true. ok? no just hurt ourselves doing that, one way or another

even a lil white lie ? and why does it have to be white can't it be a blue or green lie ? LOL

Why lie? I know who I am and what I do and if I can't own up to it when it comes right down to it, then I shouldn't be doing it in the first place!

Ugh I need to get out of here today LOL HELP, wheres the white coat??

lmao well it can be any color at all. but i have noticed that every single lie i ever told has somehow come back to bite me

Ah baloney !

Anyone who says that they 'NEVER" lie is full of it. Doesn't make it right though.

;)

No, it's not OK to lie.

I like Jonie..don't lie....

just talking to a friend about it and we strongly disagree . I know it's wrong , but he thinks it's ok if no one gets hurt.

The judgement of an action should be based upon definition of said action and then only derived from intent. Stictly speaking, Santa Claus is a lie (I just found out!), the whole basis for invading Iraq was a lie, and saying you were at the pub when you were truly in your mistress' bed is a lie. And what is a legend but a lie graced with time? The wrong is not in the lie itself, but in the motivation for the lie.

Excellent response I agree to a certain extent... but a lie is still lie. well put by the way .... you should be writing for a column somewhere .

That's kinda what I said Levi, minus all the smart stuff...

LMAO!

It depends on the stiuation...the type of lie....and if it will/could hurt anyone...........
example.........mom asks "how do I look"....my reply was, I think you actually gained some weight......now keep in mind, she actually looked like a walking skeletan and she hadn't gained an ounce.........but would saying that help her?........no......another examole....you look just as good today, as the day I married you.........these I call love'lies........they are designed to uplift.......not tear down.

I lie...I am very comfortable with it, if I have the right motivation.

Police officer:
Mr. Ocee did you at least try to miss poor Mr. Molestor with your car.

Me:
Yup...I tried my best to miss that rotten bastage.

Police officer:
But, Mr. Ocee why did you back up over him?

Me:
I felt so bad about hitting his evil ass I tried to undo it.

Police officer:
Eyewitness's say you got out of your car, and sat on his chest, and choked him.

Me:
Eyewitness accounts are highly unreliable.
I was trying to perfom CPR on the f*cker.

Police officer:
I see...



*later that night*
I sleep like a rock...

Thanks, mate...but I disagree with you...allow me elucidate...

If you were bearing a disk containing national secrets for the US Military, then were captured by Iraqi insurgents and they asked you "What is this?", would you tell them? Or if a child asked you about the Easter Bunny this weekend, would you say, "There is no $%^%$# Easter Bunny!" And if your girlfriend looked fat in her pants when she asked your opinion, would you say "Yes, Miss Hippo!" A man or woman can only be judged by his or her intentions...then again, we all know the material with which the road to hell is paved, do we not?

but to interject myself here.........I would never tell a hurtful lie........and telling someone a "fib" to help them feel better.........I've never really thought of it as lying..........to me lying is, telling me and 3 others that you "love" them.........telling someone you'll be somwhere and actually be somwhere else..........that kind of thing....I hope I vindicated myself in ya'll's eyes.......I'm not what I would consider a liar.......I just schmudge to save feelings.........like if I don't find you attractive.......I'll think of something else to say.......like, they are too tall or something.......all to just save feelings from being hurt.

LOL! Ocee!

;)

Hey Sean? Am I looking fat in my jeans?

aya.........we do know don't we Levi....LOL

i think it is. depending on the situation. example if a friend of mine is wearing a dress that she loves and makes her feel great about herself but i hate the dress, i am not going to voice that opinion, after all if it makes her feel good why bring her down, it is only my opinion. However if she asks a more important question like about a guy i happen to know is a scoundral then i will tell the truth...so it is going to depend on circumstance. I would never lie on anything important.....not even to get out of trouble!!! it is not worth it....
