WHICH IS THE BEST MODEL OF HONESTY?

ethics : WHICH IS THE BEST MODEL OF HONESTY?

Is honesty a continuum, where nothing we say is absolutely truthful or absolutely false? In this case, we have to arbitrarily draw a line where a falsehood becomes immoral. Comment on criteria for where that line may be

Or is honesty discrete?: either what you say is honest or it isn't. Comment on if any falsehoods could be immoral or honest comments immoral.

Also, are you male or female? Looking for any correlation of opinions.

Thank you :)

My reason tells me that it is a continuum, but my feelinfs tell me that it is discrete... interesting. I'm male by the way.
