It seems that we would learn that you get caught when you tell a lie. Even one lie. A small misguidance, a 'clever' cover up, and on you go, racing through your day.
I got a phone call today that made me hopping mad, as I knew the information conveyed was a lie.
Why even bother?
The news as of late is smeared with peoples names, countries names, and stories all involving lies.
The lies that are told about the inequity of humankind, about the supremacy and right to life of any one group, about the claims of ownership on a chunk of land or a person, all lead to the sick and diseased societies we see today.
Magazines insinuate that for women to be beautiful they must be thin with huge breasts and good looking men will all be practically hairless and completely muscled. Movies tell us that love is found in a look, touch and a roll into bed. So much music today insists that hate and revenge are the best way to get back at someone who hurt your feelings.
We walk by each other everyday and don't acknowledge the others existence. Online dating services offer a myriad of options all claiming to want to get to know you personally. We tell ourselves this world will get better all by itself.
Stop the insanity.
Tell the truth.
"And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." - John 8:32
