The truth that I am saying could not be found in any books created by man. How will you tackle the question?

my q. is not my problem, your problem is to find out if I'm lying or not, this q. is for the real philosophers.
You have to prove your answer.

Your problem is a problem between universals and particulars. Since man is a particular and finite being, then there is no way to know the absolute truth of universals, however man can know a lot of things about observable particulars. This is why empiricism (scientific method) has had many gains, yet people still continually argue about universal truths. The “Christian” or “Biblical” answer to ultimate or “universal” truths is to *depend* on the one who does know universal truth. That being God, namely His Spirit working with and through his written Word. All other religions, or philosophies ultimately rely on mans *independent* reasoning of the truth.

there's a distinction between doing what's sweet and doing what's maximum perfect. now and again that lie might want to help more effective then it hurts, now and again no longer, it basically is determined by potential of the problem.

I would ask if your truth is my truth. And if you knew the truth, then your truth would be my truth, and you would say it, for you surely tell the truth. But then again, you didn't say you would say the truth, only that you know it.
If not that, then I would ask if you were telling the truth. If you say no, then you told the truth and I would know that you know the truth. If you say yes, then I would ask what your definition of the truth is.

I am not sure if I would care if you were lying or not. Quite frankly if it does not concern me in any way then I would have no need to care. Other than that, it depends on what your truth is and how you presented it.

Why would I have to prove that you are telling the truth or not. I would leave the burden of proof upon YOUR shoulders.

I wouldn't bother myself with it if I never would know the truth.
