RE: Why the news today made me rather sad and pessimistic about the future.
Your question: "does your lie hurts someone/something or makes damage?" is a tricky one. I do agree, but it is difficult to know when it is a 'white lie' or when it is a real lie. When your best friend asks you if you like his girlfriend or his haircut, and you don't like her and don't like his hair, you can choose to tell the truth or you can turn it around a bit. What is better? I think it depends on the circumstances, but I know even a white lie often comes out.
The big lies of the politicians are unforgivable and we should not vote for them the next time.
Exactly! We shouldn't vote for them next time!
And about white lies... I believe that "a lie is a lie"... white or real! As often, I avoid to hurt someone! That is why I can accept the white lies! :) But being honest to someone also becomes to be honest yourself! This is important.
