A lie that is simply making up evidence to support a truth. Like I said, morally fine. Some lies are good, some lies are bad, it's overly simplistic to suggest all lying is bad.

all lying is bad..

give me an example of a "good lie"?

which is great at the start.. however it means you fail to effectively manage expectations of your other half..

so when you stumble home smashed, use the letterbox as the toilet and end up passing out in the wheelie bin, she's even angrier cause she thought you were only having a couple..

The ones I gave of lies that helped establish a truth.

In other situations like can help people. Imagine someone threatening suicide and you tell a lie to get them back off the ledge.

i can't believe how monumentally stupid that phrase is.

you don't lie to anyone in that fragile a state of mind.. if they see through the lie, it's enough to send them over the edge (figuratively and literally).
