Perspective of the Deceived 22 “From this perspective, it is clearly unreasonable to assert that people should be able to lie with impunity whenever they want to do so.” “In refusing to condone such a right to decide when to lie and when not to, we are therefore trying to protect ourselves against lies which help to execute or cover up all other wrongful acts.
Perspective of the Deceived From this position, Aristotle has said, “Falsehood is in itself mean and culpable, and truth noble and full of praise.” 22 “There is an initial imbalance in the evaluation of truth telling and lying. Lying requires a reason, while truth telling does not.” Lying “must be excused; reasons must be produced, in any one case, to show why a particular lie is not ‘mean and culpable.’”
