In Class we discussed lies and lying can can lies ever be good. Most lies are for personal gain whereas others are for the purpose of avoiding trouble. Some would say that a person ill need to lie to get by in life, but i disagree with that statement. In my eyes a lie is a lie no matter how people try and define lies into categories such as a 'Big Lie' & 'White Lie'.
Another reason why i would say lying is wrong, because of what Saint Paul teaches us in the bible "Do not lie to one another" and also one of the ten commandments is not to lie
"Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour"
