Breaking Promises
I see. So if it’s about trust and accountability then sometimes that’s not severed in a lot of societal contexts. Like when people ask u to come over sometimes and u say sure but they weren’t being super serious and u weren’t either, even if I say something like I will try to, its still lying cause I won’t try. Infact I’m going against basic decency by just not saying sure. I guess what I’m asking is : are white lies bad aswell Ex: not answering truthfully when someone asks u how u are doing ( u just don’t want to reveal yourself to even close people sometimes, especially mental struggles ) Lying to avoid a situation where u can cause discord among people ( someone asking about what the other person said about them so u lie that it was nothing cause otherwise you’ve started a household war) Or are these all sins just in much smaller capacities than larger ones. Like the sin is proportional to the potential consequences maybe?
