Lying Can Be Seen As A Threat To Civil Society, (447 hits)




Lying is Self-Deception

There are plenty of circumstances in which humans seem to convince themselves of being excused from taking a certain course of action when, to the eyes of their peers, they actually are not. A good part of those scenarios may involve that phenomenon called self-deception. Lance Armstrong may have just provided one of the starkest cases of self-deception we can offer. Yet, who is to say that you are self-deceiving yourself?

By wanting to judge the morality of lying, we may have led ourselves into one of the most difficult skeptical lands to traverse.

Lying has been seen as a threat to civil society by authors such as Kant. A society that tolerates lies – the argument goes – is a society in which trust is undermined and, with it, the sense of collectivity.

Let us take a took at what HARRY said for a moment:

We are talking about one race of people (Caucasian) accused by another race of people,,,,

(YOUR WORDS: Black American race) of lying!

MY REPLY: What are you trying to say HARRY, when you say " Black American race) of lying!" WHAT?

YOUR WORDS: We are not talking about lying can be seen as a threat to civil society.
Again, we are talking about one race accusing another race of being the greatest liars which has nothing to do with a civil society.

MY REPLY: HARRY, Do you know what groups of people living in a community or country is called?

YOUR WORDS: Firstly, Mr. Ron doesn’t have enough intelligence to understand the problem when he brought up society and society has nothing to do with one race being accused by another race of being the greatest liars.

MY REPLY: I asked you earlier, What do you think a society is. HARRY, Society is the community, the population, the public, the people. We are talking about one race of people (Caucasian) accused by another race of people,,,, these are the words in your title, are they NOT? HARRY, these are your words.

YOUR WORDS: This is race to race and has nothing to do with society.

MY REPLY: NEWS FLASH HARRY is a race comprised of people and that is the reason for your reply?

Mr. Ron is STUPID because he is unable to think analytically and reason rationally! He’s an IDIOT!

MY REPLY: Now If you can't come to this blog to back-up your own WORDS, then it is you who looks like a damn FOOL. Now, What say YOU.

YOUR WORDS: His blog is a cut and paste of someone else’s thoughts! Mr. Ron is a phony!

OH!!! you can read now? What part of my cut and paste of someone else’s thoughts, is WRONG? You have not done that YET, You have not backed up your on words, WHY?

Can you use your own words to explain why you think that a society is NOT comprised of PEOPLE?

Christ Harry!
