- Sissela Bok in 'Lying, Moral Choice in Public and Private Life'
states that all lying is counter reproductive. The only
exception concerns the classic case of giving accurate
directions to a murderer looking for their victim. The primary
reason given is that the damage to trust outweighs anything that
is gained. Debriefing, after such things as sociological
research, does not ameliorate the damage. If communication is
seen as a tool to advance understanding, then trust is the
primary determinant of the reliability and hence, value of the
tool. The variables in chaos will be overwhelming for our
species if we insist on throwing this monkey wrench into the
works.
