Usapang kasinungalingan: Is it always bad to lie? (Part I)

In this episode, tinalakay nina Russel at Lennon ang pilosopiya ng pagsisinungaling: lagi bang masama ang pagsisinungaling? Dito sa Part I ng Usapang Kasinungalingan, susuriin natin ang mga pananaw ng iba’t ibang pilosopo tulad nina Immanuel Kant, Saint Thomas Aquinas, at Socrates. We see na ang kasinungalingan ay may iba’t ibang anyo at hindi lahat ng kasinungalingan ay pantay-pantay sa kanilang moral value. Ang katotohanan at ang mga epekto ng pagsisinungaling sa kaluluwa at sa lipunan ay ang sentro ng Usapan natin in this episode.
