Does my bum look big in this?

No. Why did you guess that? Or are you just trying to be rude?

A rather odd joke. I still don't get it.

I asked you a question: Are you saying honesty is always the best policy?

Honesty shouldn't be aspired to, it should just be. It's already there, we've just covered it up or pushed it to the side

Can only be actualized if we let go of our confining definitions and restrictive perspectives

People are already bound, The differences amongst us are subtle- the same objects except one dances clockwise while the other dances counter clockwise

Something we can all aspire to.

Something we can actualize if we choose to

Something that binds people together despite differences.

I think your answer that honesty is not a policy, is evasive. You might as well say in response to the question, "That's a nice puppy over there."

In answer to your question: Sometimes dishonesty is called for, such as the Nazi at the door scenario, who asks the question you have to answer is, "Are there any Jews here?" There are all kinds of rationalizations about how to protect the Jews you are harboring while not being dishonest, but the fact is, we do have dilemmas in life where we have to choose between options neither of which we would choose by itself. Anybody who can get through life without facing this dilemma is living a miraculously charmed life.
