To some people all it takes is a hint of truth to make it true..

Some liars can be good at lying to make them seem like they have an ounce of truth. I don't think all lies have much truth.

Most lies have some truth to them as stated making them believable. However, there are lies that are so big and outrages till there is no truth in them at all.

I think so. Most lies are spun around an ounce of truth-may be not an 'ounce' , but somewhere around it

a lie is a lie, even if the ounce of truth is there, it is a lie.
The truth has to be pure, and not so complicated.

For a lie to be believable it does have to have some truth in it.

No, it's because they're usually more comfortable to believe than the truth.

Con artists call that ounce of truth "the hook".

I believe this is so. Look at how the serpent twisted the words around to Eve.
