Is lying ok?

[Dark_Adonis]

why edit your post??

I am too quick to talk. Originally it was to the effect that sin is sin, there really aren't grades, then I found out I'm an idiot I suppose I deserve it for talking too quickly on a subject I haven't touched in a while.

i voted yes. the main goal should be to save people from hell. this is accomplished when they accept Jesus as their savior, and that should be done any means necessary..

I am glad to see at least one Fundie admit the truth about their blatant hypocrisy.

Whats that commandment again?

You shall not bear false witness

I would say that there isn't a rolleyes big enough, but I found one !

On the poll results, a resounding NO. If lying on an exam is enough to expel you from school, I'd say lying to convince someone of your particular belief is pretty terrible.

If you need to lie to spread the Truth, what you’re spreading doesn’t even qualify as truth.

evolutionists have lied in the past, why should i trust anything they say??

Gee, aren't you suppose to be Better than Aethists who hate God and want to Sin and their Compromising Christian allies who reject the Literal Inerrancy of the Bible?

Ooh, someone else answered Yes! So who else is willing to sin for God?

A person of upstanding moral character, I'm certain.

 

[Dracil]

Surely the person is confident enough that sinning for God is a truly righteous and just action such that the person would proudly step forward and proclaim his or her stand!

Right? RIGHT?!

Um, what's that echo?

*crickets chirp*

Perhaps it was a drive-by voting....

 

[wagsbags]

Well there's a few who admit that they're willing to lie.

 

[Grengor]

Perhaps it was someone hitting the wrong button

 

[Dracil]

Hmm, the blushing.... was it you? Well, there's nothing wrong with admitting you made a mistake.

 

[Grengor]

Never let your cousin use your computer if he plans to go to one of your forums. It never ends well.

 

[dlamberth]

As God is Truth, how can lying for any reason bring one to Truth?

I don't remember Jesus saying "You shall believe a lie, and the falsehood shall set you free". Must be a mistake in my bible.

Beyond belief, isn't it?

Mods - is it against the forum rules to call someone a liar later when they've already proudly admitted it in this thread? Just for future reference, y'know?

When 'winning' is more important than morality you may be sure you are on the wrong team.

but then as soon as they find that their new faith is founded on lies, then that is going to be extremely damaging isn't it? Millstones and all that.

Indeed. I don't think AngryNotice really thought that answer true.
