The most convincing lies are always a partial truth

I used to think partial truths were better than full lies because at least they were leading people down a path closer to the truth

But now I think partial truths are more harmful because they are close enough to the truth that it is harder for someone to recognize it as a lie, turn away from it, and find THE Truth that is Christ Jesus

#asknostr what do you think is worse - Partial truths or full lies?

Factual but not truthful.

Good way to differentiate between “truth” and the (capital T) Truth

I think Michael Malice coined it.

The partial truths just put people into a "2nd matrix" where they smugly think they know the truth and get stuck there

Staying humble and asking God for guidance and discernment is the way through the morass
