Is it all right to lie?

Czech writer Milan Kundera raises an interesting question. Why weren't there more commandments? Something beyond 10. An 11th commandment might have been 'Thou Shalt Not Lie.' But then, I'm speculating that maybe god thinks it's all right to lie. That it's not a sin to lie. Maybe because there's no such thing as truth. Could be that god is a liar. He's certainly not telling us everything. Maybe if we knew god's truth, we'd be overwhelmed. And mortified. We couldn't take it. The truth may be that god's imperfect. Doesn't fully know what he's doing. That he's just feeling his way. And making plenty of mistakes along the way. --Jim Broede
