The Truth’s Importance

The truth’s importance varies upon the situation. If the information that is going to be given is going to influence somebody’s decisions or actions, then the information should be truthful. Acting on incorrect information can be very detrimental. There are other times when the truth must be shielded. Some times this is a matter of preserving tradition, as is the case with Christmas. Other times the truth must be worked around to avoid hurting somebody’s feelings. It is not right to lie outright, but if it is done delicately, it is ok.
