I know that my stand goes against the current viewpoint, however, lies are acts of violence against the intended victim. A lie forces the victim to acton incomplete information.It's just like you twisted their arm. Lies are an absolute last resort. I challenge anyone to tell me a justifiable lie.

white lies ? well i can accept white lies, sometimes truth hurts. For example, it's better that im not telling my son that i was doing very bad things when im young. I don't want him to knows that his father was a criminals. I've changed anyway, i don't want to broke his heart by letting him knows that thing. He won't know if im not telling him.
Or i won't tell my wifes that i don't like her handmade sweater that she specially create for me. Eventhough i don't like it, still i appreciate her gift and therefor i lie to her by saying that i liked the sweater that she made.

Before you judge all white lies to be insignificant, take a moment and reflect on the damage done. Since the liar is both jugge and jury, regarding the merits of a lie, who is to determine what a white lie truly is?

the one that tells a 'lie' is the one to determine wether it's a 'white lie' or simply just 'lie' ... the society could be the judge for that ...

Lies are absolutely unjustifiable not only with people, but more importantly, with God.
Revelation 21:8 denotes that liars are absolutely positively outside of the will of God and have no part in God's kingdom.
The problem is that if you tell lies, even occaisionally, you are a liar. Now that I am saved, I don't tell lies ever. Period.
