Interesting point. I dont think i ever thought of that aspect.
Regardless, i think it encompasses more than just lying against ones neighbors. i think it basically encompasses gossip and slander.
I pretty-much agree. My point is that matt was using the wrong rule to support his argument.
To take it a step further .... is Man's first duty to God, or to the Gestapo (Man)? Ever the literalist, matt chooses to take lying in an attempt to do wrong out of context and just call all lies the same. I think matt's definition is not in keeping with the intent of God's law.
But what's new?
