Steph's Blog about Lying.

When reading Steph's blog about lying, her views were completely the same as mine that I had recently done an essay on for Being Bad.

Like she said, we were all told when we are young that lying is bad and that we should always tell the truth. Most of us were also told that our nose would grow like Pinocchio if we lied! But it is true what Steph says that sometimes it is better to lie. There are some times when you tell a lie and everything is forgotten, which it wouldn't be if you told the truth. The example I used in my essay was if you lost an item of clothing that you borrowed, it is easier to lie about what really happened.

However the sort of lying that I am completely against is where you know what you are doing will hurt the person you are lying to (name no names, John Terry), for starters the person shouldn't even get themselves into the position that they should lie about what they are doing, but to lie about it makes the situation worse.

Fair enough, we all tell a white lie here and there, but deceiving people conciously is just "Being Bad".
