[QUOTE="Alpha_Romeo, post: 933794, member: 6220"] Just to add to Cattle Rustler's post. Strategic forward thinking with respect to lying is pretty much a unique Anglo trait. In other words when Anglos construct lies it's done with a greater level of consistency and coherence in order to stand up to rigorous scrutiny. On the other hand, there are cultures that aren't so forward-thinking, including when it comes to lying. Lies, often crappy ones, are told with the expectation on the liar's part, and out of hubris, that ithe lie will be believed and on the recipients' part that it won't be challenged. [/QUOTE]
