When 'WHITE LIE' Is Acceptable
Indeed, there is NO saint all over our Planet Earth. Not even within Vatican City. So When does a lie become A 'WHITE LIE'? Allow me to share this Quora.com post of Christian Odinson last November 3rd. A Russian soldier ran up to a nun. Out of breath, he asked "PLEASE MAY I HIDE UNDER YOUR SKIRT?" The nun agreed. A moment later, two military police ran up andasked, "SISTER, HAVE YOU SEEN A SOLDIER?" The nun replied. "HE WENT THAT WAY". After the military police left, the soldier crawled out from under her skirt and said, "I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH, SISTER. ITS BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO GO TO UKRAINE". He added "I HOPE I'M NOT RUDE BUT YOU HAVE A GREAT PAIR OF LEGS". The nun replied, "IF YOU LOOKED A LITTLE HIGHER, YOU WOULD HAVE SEEN A GREAT PAIR OF BALLS TOO. BTW, I DON'T WANT TO GO TO UKRAINE TOO".So, please DON'T get me wrong. I not here to condone and encourage WHITE LIES but in life, there will be circumstances that are never premeditated which somehow leads us to accept when a WHITE LIE may be that acceptable. When you are under COERCION or DURESS [an extreme example is when a thief points a gun at you, demanding you to withdraw from your ATM. A WHITE LIE that you deny you have an ATM is acceptable.
When you need to protect your name, honor and credibility without besmirching others, a WHITE LIE is acceptable as long as it doesn't become morally or legally wrong. When sometimes you are down to your last $$$$ on your wallet and someone requests for a small amount of loan, a WHITE LIE stating that you are penniless is fine if it is for the welfare of yourself and your family.
At the end of the day, what should prevail is the protection, security and welfare of yourself and your family as long as it is within the bounds of the law. We are NOT here to encourage anyone to breach any of the federal, local or even moral laws because. Instead, what is imperative is that when your 'LIFE IS ON THE LINE', do what it takes to protect and keep yourself and your name untainted and unsullied but without the ill intent of deception and deceit because that throws us to the other side of the fence. Just be mindful when a WHITE LIE is acceptable✅✅✅
