If you’re truly honest, you’d say yes.
If you weren’t honest, you’d lie and say yes.
If you were truly honest and say no, then you’re not being honest about your honesty.
If you weren’t honest and say no, then you’re being honest which is a paradox.
If you’re truly honest, you’d say yes.
If you weren’t honest, you’d lie and say yes.
If you were truly honest and say no, then you’re not being honest about your honesty.
If you weren’t honest and say no, then you’re being honest which is a paradox.
This only holds true if you define “honest” as “tells the truth 100% of the time” and “dishonest” or “not honest” as “lies 100% of the time.”
I’ve never told the truth before and I never will.
Nah, only the first part needs hold true, no need to define dishonest as lies 100% of the time.
Not sure why the down votes… You can be dishonest and truthful but you cannot be dishonest and honest. You can mix truths in with lies and that would still absolutely be considered dishonest, but you cannot mix lies into truths and still be honest.
Depends on how you look at it. For instance if someone asks about a subjective matter, and you know they’re not asking because they wish to know your opinion about the subject matter, but because they need psychological reassurance or some such thing.
For example “does this make my ass look big”? Or “do I look good in this dress?”
Would you consider a person dishonest for reassuring someone who might have struggled with weight and confidence issues, even if they might not regard that person personally attractive to them?
Is it lying? Perhaps. Is it dishonest? Unless you think there’s some objective standard for what is a big ass and what is good-looking, then it’s gonna be hard to argue either of those are lies, no matter what the scenario. You can also do “well no, that doesn’t make your ass look big, it looks the same size both with and without pants” or “no, that dress doesn’t make you look good, you always look good”.
