It is unconscionable to think that a person would lie to another person, unfortunately this happens all to often, sometimes a lie is just the way that a story gets told. Let's say that three men go to a motel to rent a room for a weekend and the motel only has one room with two beds, but the motel manager also has cots that he can rent, for just such emergencies. The room rents for $23.00 per night and the cot is rented for $7.00 per night. The three men divide the cost up between themselves and give the manager $10.00 each. The manager going over his figures for the day realizes that he overcharged the men $5.00 for the rental of the cot which should have been rented for $2.00 per night not $7.00 per night. The motel manager calls the bellhop over and entrusts the bellhop to return the overcharge to the three men. The bellhop understanding his duties realizes that; $5.00 cannot be divided evenly among three people, in order to avoid a conflict for which he has no change, pockets $2.00. Now knowing that we all use the same reasoning to follow a set series of thoughts using the same rules maybe you can explain this small detail. Since the men received $1.00 back and there are three of them that meant each combined paid $27.00 and the bell hop kept $2.00, what happened to the final $1.00?
The above paragraph describes ways in which the human mind can be manipulated and convinced that an error is actually truth. The reality is that the given scenario is fallacious in reality the error actually exists from the person telling and controlling the story.
It is never correct to twist an event or lie to any one, but if a person is suspected of doing something they certainly need to be given the opportunity to have the real truth revealed. It is wrong to lie to a suspect, that is deviant behavior and "if you can justify deviant behavior then you are a danger to yourself and others" Robert Sharpe Jr. Esq. A greater crime is created when a person lies in court. That is called perjury and what is really wrong is when a prosecutor would lie to a suspect or about a suspect and then go into court and tell that lie in court in front of a judge or a judge and jury and a person would be convicted upon the prosecutor's lie. This causes major problems for society, if you job requires you to lie, then you need a different job.
Understanding how to twist or untwist the problems of society is to understand how we think and what we beliefs in. Just recently 2-1-04 I heard on the news that 243 people were killed in Saudi Arabia while making a pilgrimage to celebrate the stoning of the Devil. What I draw issue with is that we are all told about this terrible evil that has control of our lives and we fail to see that we ourselves cause some of the most horrific trauma to others. The worst part is that we could cast of f the very evil actions as the will of GOD. I don't think that a war based upon a lie about the existence of weapons that never existed is a good cause for war where over 530 men and woman have been killed and more are going to die before this conflict is resolved. That is just evil for the twisting that they see occur in our own lives , and theology. This takes me back to the Saudi Arabic lives that were lost as a curse from GOD. This was more a curse by people that didn't have a mass movement properly orchestrated for the safety of all. The organizers are just as at fault as the bullies that show complete disregard for the sanctity of the life of others.
The fact is that we are all at fault for the terrible events that occur 'in and around' our world for the lies that are promoted and believed. The victims of these lies are not the ones that should be suffering; they are the ones with a great reward in Heaven. If you know that I am the victim of a lie it is your duty to untie the lie and assist in every way possible to correct the misrepresentation that has occurred. Or is it your theology that is flawed? In casting out the devil you could be part of an unruly mob. You might find yourself as an uncaring participant rushing to throw your stone not being aware of those that you are hurting. Or you have your eyes focused on the possible return of Jesus from the clouds. In this miraculous return we are told that all of the faithful will be removed by the Rapture. We are told of the evil that rules this planet, and that the good will be removed. Then we are told that Jesus will rule the evils of those that are left for a thousand years of peace.
There are obvious flaws in both scenarios:
1.) In the first those casting out the Devil have a callous disregard for others that get in their way.
2.) In the second we have the good being removed where we are told there are no good people. Those that become good washed by the blood of sacrifice actually move into the camp of those casting out the Devil becoming complacent in their actions failing to help others.
The task become overwhelming.
Nobody is helped through complacency.
Lying and stealing is wrong and Perjury is a crime!
What happened to the missing dollar? The dollar was never missing. The charge for the overnights stay is $25.00. The three men were returned $3.00 of the $5.00 overcharge, and they were ripped off by the bellhop for $2.00. There is a crime of theft, but not a single dollar is missing. It is the act of not following the story properly. You become confused, easily misled, and then you become convinced about what is not real. It takes careful reasoning to know what is real and what is not real.
