white lies...
What do you think? Is it right?? or false?? I think.. sometimes... white lies are needed... for some situation..
I think you could also ask yourself "is lying alright?" I don't blame people for saying lies if it means to save themselves or someone else to keep your friend out of trouble or something coze I know I used to do that a lot in middle school. Nowadays I try not to tell lies at all and just be blunt about the truth. There are many cases where a lies will get you out of a really bad situation and the result would've been better if you had told them the truth. It's always good to ask yourself "Is it worth lying?" if the result is something you can live with the rest of your life I'd tell the truth. There are some cases where something happens, you want to lie but you know it's morally wrong, but then again sometimes those cases occur and it's not your fault. I try to judge when to lie and when not to and try to not lie as a whole, but if I had to I'd assess the worth of lying.
Sometimes people say things like I don't lie, and things like not answering a question so you don't have to lie is actually a lie, it's called lie by omission, and about the withe lies it really depends on the person cause sometimes if you are honest all the time people will find it annoying and sometimes the truth is hard.

In my opinion it depends on what the little white lie is about. I mean, if you slept with your teacher, then yeah, KEEP it a secret (not that I would know...) because that little white lie can get you in lots of black trouble so to speak, but if it's nothing big, why worry?
I agree with longbow, "Is lying alright?"
i always find situation when all white lies become complicated, and it make me angry sometimes, why don't just tell me the truth..??
well, its hurt to know the truth, but i feel more hurt when i know someone lie to me...

There are situations where you even have to lie,
its a huge difference for my if someone lies to save himself ot to lie to save a friend.
When a lie is needed i think its all right but just in such situations

You can Lie to defend the truth. Lying is always looked down upon no matter what but lying is also seen as a form of self defense since it usually happens automatically.
Lying is both a tool and a general act of self defense that someone has for whatever reason. However white lies imply that it's being used for a good, to protect someone, or that it's practically harmless.
Although lying is not something I approve of (well heck I've lied, you'd have to lie to say you've never lied xD) a white lie can sometimes be the best possible solution at a given time, yet eventually the truth will leak out one way or the other.
I think this all mainly depends on a person's morality and values, some are honest to the core and simply won't ever tell a lie, others lie all the way through their lives while others use lies at specific moments where trouble can be kept away.
It all depends on the situation and on you as a person.

I think it depends on the situation, really.
I'm not free of lies. However, it's rare that I tell a lie for my own gain. Generally a lie I tell is more a manipulation of reality than an actual lie, and it's usually to prevent someone from getting in trouble. It's for a good cause 99% of the time, yet it is still a lie, and I don't lie if I don't have to. I like honesty, but sometimes to keep the peace, a little change is required.
All my opinion, by the way, leave me be. xD

Lying is usually wrong, but sometimes it is needed to maintain the situation. White lies area rarely anything to worry about. A lie should be told to make someone feel better, make something sound better than it is, that kind of thing. The bad lies are the ones that withhold important things and are the ones you should avoid, especially if they lead to dire repercussions.

I myself feel like i'm going to have a heart attack of i lie. Even a white one my parents can't even get me to do it but i will lie on occasion but just wind up telling the truth in at most a month but generally in half an hour or less so i learned to just tell most of the truth and not say the rest in all honesty the only people i'd lie to is the government and that's cause of my expiriences with my school district and btw both my parents were teachers and they know the school systems going to hell and even agreed some of my teachers were evil that and telling something yo or someone you know has done wrong to them will only lead to pain. so i belive in the truth as a good thing unless it's something that can lead to prison or the like also depending on the severity of said act
White lies is done to hide something that's true. It's the same as the ordinary lies do. So, I think that white lies are as bad as the ordinary lies. ^^
White lies,its might be actually needed.
Sometimes,justice can only be done through lying,as telling the truth would only bring suffering.
Sometimes,you need to lie to protect someone you holds dear to the heart,and to give happiness to them.
Sometimes,only when you're lying you will be able to survive a situation.
Sometimes,by lying you actually are able to make someone feels better,for example lying to a person who seeks their loved one when that person is already dead.When they know you're lying they will be hurt very much,but at least you're just trying to make them feels better.
And some other times,a lie is the only thing can be done to save everything in your life.

True, white lies are a lie as well, but they are different in the sense of their intentions. A lie is done with intentions for a person's personal gain from lying, whereas white lies are done in general to protect the one receiving the lie or to protect someone else, not always though, but in general yeah.
