Lying

There are many types of lyina and in my opinion, they can be split in to two different groups. Theres white lies which are usually told with no bad intentions, then theres all the other types of lies! They are told either to hurt people, to with hold valuable information from someone or to be down right mean! Lying to someone can have many consequences including breaking the trust between you and the person you lied to and may even have more serious consequences! According to the bbc website 'Lying is probably one of the most common wrong acts that we carry out' it also says 'Most people would say that lying is always wrong, except when there's a good reason for it - which means that it's not always wrong!' which is a statement i thoroughly agree with.
