They are both wrong! A little 'truth' with only partial lie, is just as bad as telling a complete whopper! Wrong is wrong, plain and simple! There really is no such thing as a 'half truth', a lie is a lie, no matter what u call it or how u look at it. And why lie in the first place? life is too short to play games.

The half truth, because false information mixed with real is the most deadly. For example look at the 2003 invasion of Iraq, that was solely based on half true information, at least if it were a complete lie our exceptions wouldn't have been so high.

Book of James in the New Testament says a double minded man
One half true/ one half lie is the worst of all possible people.
And its the truth..
Better to be wrong or right than stuck in the middle..

I agree inclusive of your actuality that a 1/2-actuality certainly result to an complete lie. the actual shown actuality that purely 1/2 of the actuality is revealed makes the tale 1/2-baked actuality and this received't justify to make the tale complete baked of actuality. there remains an complete lie because you won't be able to use as a protection a 1/2 lie. that's quite absurd and could not in any respect replaced the entire photo. The summation of all is an complete lie.

A whole lie is worse because a little truth is better than none.

I think a half-truth is the worst because there is too much wiggle room to fill in the blanks with wrong information.Always shoot a straight arrow.

facts are subjective-a lie may not be a lie. Depends on the situation. (I work in a law office) For ex: "I was having sex with my sectary on my desk. My wife called me and told me to come home. I told her I couldn't because there was something on my desk that needed my attention."
Did I lied?

Your question suggests one is better than the other. This, of course, is not possible. Both are bad.
