Simply put: sometimes we HAVE to lie. People try to control us. Society attempts to enforce unjust rules on us in order to use us as cogs for its giant machine. Sometimes, we must lie in order to gain a measure of freedom.
Unfortunately I don't agree with you... we don't have to lie because of Social limitiations... society may make us feel inferior, but this in itself is not cause enough for us to lose our own sense of ultimate self-worth and integrity. There are many people in history who changed the course of history by maintianing levels of integrety and high-leveled honesty.
