To safely call a statement a lie according to all definitions it must be false, but more importantly it must be said knowing that is false (having an intent to deceive).
- drivebyacct2 16y agoI feel like I differentiated between making stuff up, being unsure and simply being wrong. The 'lying' is mostly an attribution to making things up or asserting assumptions as fact which I still would consider deceitful. edit: I may not have differentiated that as well as I had thought in my original post. In another comment on this comment level, I tried to differentiate between the various types of "being wrong" and/or their causes.
