TFJ Season 6 Episode 3 Lying is Bad for You and the World (A)
The Talmud teaches that God's seal is truth; lying displays that you care more what your fellow man thinks than what the Lord thinks of you. A half a truth is a whole lie and partial truths should not be rationalized or legitimized. One of the attributes of The Valorous Woman that Solomon extolls is "the heart of her husband trusts in her." Trust can only be earned by being a consistently honest person, whose word is constantly reliable, and admits when they make a mistake. Everyone knows that lies travel at a faster velocity than the truth; and this was even before the digital age. Thanks to the internet and social media, a lie is far more powerful than ever previously conceived. Hitler outlined his plan for ruling Germany in his manifesto ,Mein Kampf. A key component to taking power was the implementation of the "Big Lie," explained at length in our forthcoming character episode p"G (Season Six, Episode 7).
