What if ... nobody lied? Triumphant Return
since childhood we are taught not to lie, and follow it very well until we tried it once and tried how it feels, well probably the first time lie has no consequences, we are a few steps mentidores become professionals.
Trust to lie comes when we discover one of our parents lying, then tell us that sometimes you have to lie to avoid upsetting a person for such person to do something you need ... in short, no excuses.
The point is that sooner or later, we all lie and (admittedly) often works. Already raised enough to introduce the question:
what if nobody lied?
recent graduate of gastronomy - do you like the food?
You with a disgusted - No, this nasty, do not know why you got to study this.
another example:
- how do I look?
- old, fat and haggard.
Just imagine that suddenly everyone will tell your truths ... at first would lower our self-esteem considerably, because no one is perfect and, in the eyes of others, much less. Then everyone would be revealed as the monsters that are, well who would know We have had enough, who is jealous us, who we want death, who loves us so.
is this good?
one hand, the criminal prosecution would not be so difficult to ask people if they stole this or if I kill so and so would suffice. Also everyone would be more aware of what goes on in the minds of others, we know that we always talk without intention to deceive, could rely more on people, just enough to ask.
addition would increase conflicts between people, human relations would fall incredibly and what we now know as "progress" would be reduced. Human beings we would become less sociable and marriage may go down in history.
I wonder how it would handle policy under such circumstances and if the stability of the countries would remain, and international relations.
what you think? would the world be better or worse without lying?
