All people lie. Do you agree?

All people lie. Do you agree?

 

[Pen>Sword]

Everybody lies. Period. Not all the time though.

 

[BluesRunTheGame]

Well I know I don't.

Oh wait I just did.

 

[WornOutLife]

Yes, either white lies or black lies, I think every single human being tells a lie sooner or later.

 

[BigNarkoleptic]

All people lie. Do you agree?

perhaps, perhaps not, to tell the truth and ne'er a lie

 

[Sprite_Geist]

Yes everybody does lie. What differentiates people is how much they lie, and whether or not the intentions behind their lying are good.

The whole civilization is based on deception and lies ...

Yes we all lie, even God is a lie, so when Christians say Jesus loves me, I say:

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

Every day when I get home from work my girlfriend lies to me.

Absolutely. It's a massive lie that the people who run this world have been keeping up for centuries. People who are unhappy have opened their eyes and realized this whole thing is a lie. Human beings lie to others and to themselves because lying allows you to cope with the harsh realities of life. When the lies and copes run out, you lose your will to live. You realize that the la la fantasy lie about everything being perfect and wonderful is false. If you don't have money, looks, or status, you will suffer in life. Humans are attracted to good-looking, high status people. All relationships (family, friend, romantic) are a transaction and trade of resources. True love doesn't exist and no one loves anyone unconditionally. Human beings are selfish, superficial, shallow, and greedy. No denying it

 

[loopylou]

No

 

[FuneralCry]

Yes, it is simply human nature to lie.

 

[charcoalcat]

100% honesty never works in life, just like in the movie 'Interstellar'. Lying to others is human. What's damaging is when we lie to ourselves. And for far too long have I been lying to myself. Only when I realized it it's too late.

 

[Jean Améry]

If that statement were true no-one's answer to the question is to be trusted. It's the paradox of the liar: if a liar tells you he's lying to you does he speak the truth or not?

 

[Moose.000]

To an extent, yes, absolutely.

I think every single human has the capacity to be dishonest, and probably have been to some degree or the next in their lives. We're born with intrinsic worth and dignity that we're told pushes us to be fully honest, but every person has the ability to lie. Some saying they've never lied may be a lie in itself.

Either lying as a kid about something small they hide from their parents, or someone lying to an abusive family or abusive partner out of self preservation and a sense to keep yourself out of being persecuted or abused more, or otherwise.

I've noticed as an abuse survivor I have a tendency to hide things or lie more than I should, about small things like where I'm going when I leave the house or what food I eat, it's tough to shake.

There's no telltale way to know if a liar is lying unless you know what to look for, but even then, how could you say for certain until the truth is pulled out, if it ever is? All truths can be questionable at that point.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

I lie to myself every day whenever I say anything even remotely positive.

 

[PaxAmerica]

I think the day it hits you how just corrupt humans really are it amazes you that civilizations even developed. But I guess lying therefore is part of human nature and must play a part in how our societies evolved. But from judges to doctors, police to politicians, the baker to the bin man, I think it is inescapable that people lie to some extent.

 

[bad luck]

I do not like to lie. I have only lied to say that I have not drunk. I am so honest that this world has destroyed me.

 

[All-Dead-Y]

Probably. I don't like to think that Mr. Rodger lies though.

 

[LastFlowers]

No

Some people lie to save their lives, everyone lies at one point or another, it was just a joke, christ...

I do not. You know there are some people who give a shit about being genuine yea?

 

[catch99]

Yes, all people lie. There is levels to it though. Have you ever met a sociopath? Those people lie all the time and sometimes seemingly for no reason.

 

[notoriousrbg]

All people lie. Do you agree?

I certainly do.

 

[Dizzy_Dreams]

Every day when I get home from work my girlfriend lies to me.

It's a joke that's only available to those that have read my posts.
