Honesty always the best policy?
I was watching the movie Interstellar and there was a part that got me thinking. The actors were talking among themselves about honesty. Most agreed that honesty is the correct policy 100% of the time. When the robot was asked, it responded by saying 90/10...accounting for the emotions of some.So, is it that highly emotional people require dishonesty for their own good?
Or....it is better to have honesty 100% of the time and for people to keep their emotions in check?
....suppose, the second is probably easier said than done when it comes to the highly emotional.

honesty is always the better term for conditions ,some people do have a hard time to understand the small print, but still signing an agreement that they can't follow up.
Honesty is the only way.
In my humble opinion..
So....I have to agree with the robot.
Thanks for your perspective.
Depending on the relationship with each other,with enough experiences, the robot doesn't need to assist us anymore.
If so....is honesty really always the best policy?
But....living as honestly as possible is a good thing. I still do be as honest as possible....I think when you are honest with most people, they appreciate it.
I have seen honest people...even in those tough situations....and I cannot help but to be drawn to them.
I think we have all lied at one time or another though.
Rough....I can relate....with some things coming back to haunt you. I hope you created some distance between those who used your honesty against you.
Thanks all...time for me to get some sleep.
Take care all, and thank you.
I hope I will have some time tomorrow to continue on with the responses...if not, I will get to them.
Molly....I will check it out. Honestly, I didn't see it.
