Genesis: The Background of my Big Question

  My big question was why do people lie. The reason I always ask myself this question is because I always think its really important to be honest even if you are gonna hurt someone's feelings it's for the best. Like in some cases people lie to not get themselves exposed for example when someone cheats on someone they don't tell them the truth so they won't hurt the other person or other part of the story when they just want to have fun. I think it's important to always tell the truth even if it means hurting someone else.
