SHOULD LYING BE ILLEGAL?


[+] ballot by RobinGaylord
created Tue Mar 20, 07

I think that most people will vote no on this but the reason i ask is because by voting no you are acknowledging that to some degree man has a right to lie. Deception plays a key role in many animals survival and therefore is a component of evolution. A walking stick is not in fact a stick but the fact that it looks like one has ensured it's survival. I think humans lie for a variety of reasons. Tact being probably the most common. Whose going to tell their grandmother her cookies taste awful when she took the time to make them for you. But sometimes lying is an essential element of survival. Especially when a government is corrupt, such as all the hiding places and escape routes Jews used to escape capture from Nazis. The underground railroad is another example but I've gone on a bit too long. What do you think?

Voted : No
It's part of man's freedom of speech. The punishment of being caught is enough that there needn't be any legal issues.

It is illegal and a crime in some cases, like when someone commits perjury.
Of course, telling your gf that her ass isnt too big even though she doesnt fit in her pants is considered sweet (I hope).

No.

Unless you are in government and it's your job to tell the truth.

If someone ever invented a 100% accurate lie detector, Washington D.C. would become a ghost town.
