Yes.  i tell true lies all the time.  One can lie by omission as well as commission.  When someone asks me why i did something, i give them a reason.  Naturally, they assume it is THE reason.  i may have had 9 or 10 diff. reasons, no one said the reason given, was even in the top 5.  It is not nescessarily my MOTIVE, if you follow me.  There are many other examples when you speak in a kind of code, to determine who really GETS you, ya know?

I would ask, "What would the other angel say about your pathway? to each of them. One would say, "He would say that my pathway leads to Hell," (which is the truth, otherwise if he were lying, then the other angel would be the truth teller, and lier would not say that that would be what the other would say, becuase that would be the telling the truth) and then the other would say, "He would say me pathway leads to heaven." (which is a lie, becuase if he were the truth teller, the other angel would be the lyer, and the lyer would not say that other's led to heaven, otherwise, he would be telling the truth)So, the angel that said, "He would say that my pathway lead to Hell," Is the path that leads to heaven.

Quoted from the website listed at the bottom,\n\nFor Men Only, The Art of Lying to Your Wife\n\nAll right, I admit the title to this article doesn’t sound good. I’ll even use the words "deceptive" or "dishonest"; maybe "disingenuous" sounds better. But, if the male species is to survive we need to know the top five times a bold face lie to our woman is required if we are to stay in a long, loving relationship. How would you respond to the following scenarios? \n\nScenario #1: It’s 11:30, lights out, you’ve just finished watching Leno and you’ve given your wife a good night kiss. A few minutes pass… you’re drifting off…when you suddenly hear your Boo Bear say, "Honey, if I ever died would you ever remarry?" What do you do?\n\nA. Pretend to be asleep.\nB. Tell her that "A love match like ours can never be replaced".\nC. Tell her that after an appropriate mourning period you would naturally begin to socialize.\n\n\nScenario #2: You’re invited to your ten-year class reunion. Your woman squeezes into her old cheerleading outfit and remarks, "My goodness! It still fits! How do I look? Do I look fat?" Would you say:\n\nA. Maybe we need to call Jenny Craig.\nB. It’s like we’ve gone back in time. You’ve never looked so beautiful.\nC. The word "Oink" comes to mind.\n\n \nScenario #3: It’s your anniversary and your wife has surprised you with a candle lit dinner for two. As you cut into the Cornish game hen dust rises from the incision you’ve just made. As you take your first bite you’re reminded of the Sahara Desert. "How do you like it? I’ve slaved over a hot stove for four hours." What do you say?\n\nA. It’s a little dry.\nB. It’s delicious! Are you related to Julia Child?\nC. Even the contestants on "Survivor" would pass on this bird.\n\n\nScenario #4: Your wife’s best friend just completed her thesis towards her Ph.D. Your spouse ponders whether her own accomplishments in life are as worthy and asks, "Honey, in the big scheme of things do I make a difference?" Do you say:\n\nA. In this big crazy world we live in who’s to say what matters and what doesn’t?\nB. Didn’t you drop out after the 6th grade?\nC. You make a difference to me and anyone else who is lucky enough to come in contact with you.\n\n\nScenario #5: After your wife’s best friend receives her new Ph.D., her husband pops for a new rack and face-lift for her. Your wife is appalled and says, "I can’t believe it, first she tries to prove she’s smarter than everyone else and now she’s trying to look 20 years younger. Why won’t she just grow old gracefully? Honey, do I need a face-lift?" What do you say?\n\nA. Does the Mona Lisa need a new coat of paint? Of course not!\nB. No, I like the wrinkles. They show experience and wisdom.\nC. What I think we’re dealing with here is a tear down.\n\nThere are five areas where telling the truth may be detrimental to your health. Discussing your wife’s mortality, weight, age, accomplishments or her cooking. Tread softly. If the truth hurts and it usually does, keep your mouth shut or tell a lie. While honesty is usually the best policy, staying alive and your wife’s happiness is a bigger priority.\n\nby Fred Cuellar the Diamond Guy®

Ask one brother which path the other brother will tell you to go down.  Then do the opposite.  Think about it...  if you ask the liar which one the other will tell you to go down, he'll lie about what the truth teller will say, thus giving you the opposite of the right path.

Do you want me to tell you the truth or do you want me to lie?

Yes.  They can't say they are a liar if they always tell the truth.  Otherwise, technically, they'd be lying about their honesty and that would make them a liar.

usually there are two brothers standing at the fork- in which case youd ask "which way would your brother tell me to go"\n\nit would be the same answer either way- and you would choose to go the opposite way because both would say the land of lies\n\n\n\nmy fiance just came up with a new question you could ask which would be "could you point to which land your from?" The truth one would answer "truth land" and the liar would answer "truth land"- either way you end up going where you want to go!

So as a question in logic:\n\nBook A says:\n"book B is full of lies!"\n\nBook B says:\n"book A is one big pack of LIES!"\n\nWhich do you base your life on?

Bobby... that riddle doesn't really work if you write it down...heh.\n\nThe catch is to tell it to someone fast and quickly, to confuse them. If you write it down, it becomes easy.

It would seem to pose a dilemma, however, in my opinion I am tempted to believe them up until the time that I catch them telling the truth and which will eventually happen if one engages the liar into a lengthy discussion.\nWith the proper question posed at a particular time within the discourse the truth will 'blurt.'\nA question such as "Do you want to be treated to a free steak dinner on me?" \nHope this does it.

Actually, the original riddle from the Infocom Zork series read: "Tall as a house, round as a cup, and all the king's horses can't draw it up."\n\nThe answer was, of course, as one other adeptly answered before I did, "a well".

No there is not.\nIn all of my years of lying and being lied to in various walks of life I've learned that everybody lies, everybody gives it away, and detecting a lie is more detective work than "dead give-away".\nYes there are lots of bodily quirks to pick up on when someone lies. These (like the eyes for example) reflexes really do not indicate a person is lying. They rather indicate that a person is nervous. Very often that is because they are lying but sometimes it is for any one of many other reasons. For example a murderer might pass a lie detector and even fool seasoned detectives, but you might fidget and cry and do all sorts of strange things if the cops stop at your door and ask where you were yesterday even if you were home quietly minding your own business.\nThe truth is to get to the bottom of a lie you have to be aware of what a particular person does when they lie. To do this you must be calculated and patient. \n1.)Wait to be told a lie that you know is a lie and begin to note any significant or slightly unusual behaviours (such as body language and voice tone out of the ordinary).\n2.) Engage the liar in a conversation where you request as much detail about the lie as you can. Make careful note of body language etc., and note the details of the conversation. Sound interested and convinced and you should get enough info for later.\n3.) Be patient. Find more proof.\n4.) You have to wait until the "LIE" surfaces a second time. You can elicit this it can be in the same conversation.\n5.) Make sure you heard right, ask them to repeat the lie. Make note of all body language etc.\n6.) Make a note of time date or other significant information at the time so you can remember enough to be certain for yourself that you know they have been caught.\n7.) Now this is where this all pays off. You sit your liar down and YOU initiate the conversation about any suspected lie. This time you start talking like your convinced and get them to repeat the suspected lie yet again. Watch the body laguage the whole time. You do not ever have to confront them.\n\nPLEASE NOTE:\nThis is a little trick meant to find out what a PARTICULAR PERSON does when they lie. It is meant to help determine the DIFFERENCE BETWEEN nervousness due to lying and other nervous behaviour one might exhibit when they are not lying. It is not meant to find out a lie. The liar always gives it away you just have to figure it out for your own liar.\n\nYou need a lie you know is a lie and they must think you believe it. The more you talk about the lie you know the more you have to watch and see. The more lies you do it with the more accurate you will become. This is something you can do dozens of times with a coworker or nieghbor before you confront them. The more often you do it before confrontation (if you choose confrontation) the more likely  you will be accurate. \nIf you make all of this happen (which could be done with someone you know but probably not a single encounter with a stranger) you should have a solid list of reflexes, behaviours, etc, that you can apply to ONLY THAT PERSON\nYou should be able to have no more than 95% odds that you can detect A person lying. If you want to keep your friends and family don't do this to them.\nYou will be surprised (and not too happy) to know who is really lying to you and about what. But I hope this helps and hope the lie is not too big. \nREMEMBER THE HUMAN MIND IS INCREDIBLE AND NOTHING IS FOOL PROOF.
