I believe a little white lie is better than the truth sometimes. If it's for a good reason.

the problem with white lies is that they are relative; there are two people involved here, the person telling and the person being told. what the person telling views as a white lie may not be seen as such by the person being told.

murky waters :S

the truth shall set you free

sometimes we need to lie it depends on the present context. then afterwards the truth should be told.

That is certainly a very pragmatic way of dealing with it. Serve the purposes - telling lies when necessary, telling truth when necessary as well. But is that all there is to it?

When someone tells me a white lie, they are presuming that I'm too shallow or sensitive to deal with the truth.聽 In other words, a white lie is insulting to the one being duped.
