On the Topic of Lying

 Last class we discussed the ethics of lying and whether or not it is ever morally just to lie to one another. 

A few years ago I discovered this essay by Sam Harris titled "Lying" which I found to be quite insightful at the time. I thought I'd share this link for anyone else who'd like to read the essay:

  1. Great, thanks for the post. What do you recall was Sam's position? Did he agree with Kant?

    Oh, and btw: who are you? (Tell the truth.)
