Have you lied to achieve a purpose?

#qa In Venezuela, the lie has become a habit.
Liveness and lie has become the day of almost all its inhabitants.
Getting to a healthcare center in the middle of this pandemic is depressing. Recently I have had to take a family member with symptoms of covid and with a fairly committed prognosis to one of these outpatients and it has been an almost wild struggle to be cared for.
Standing at the door for long hours and seeing how they cared for some patients and others did not, forced me to put a lie of the pious calls to be cared for.
On this occasion I had to say that it was recommended by a senior state government official (which I had heard from someone else) to be taken care of..
Now I wonder, is it bad to lie?. Maybe if I hadn't done it, my relative could have passed away..
This example undoubtedly has the ability to generate an interesting debate about lying.
It is said that a lie changes everything, in my case, of course it changed, I was taken care of immediately, but my conscience is not clear and I do not feel good for having done it, because thinking that there were patients in equal or worse conditions makes me feel a bad person.
But at the same time I wonder if a person who hunts animals asks us in which direction did the fox go what would you say? , the right direction or the other, if you know that by lying you could save his life.

Excess benevolence generates injustice. Excess of justice, makes you tyrant.

In Venezuela it is customary to see people do harm to lie to get what they want, and unfortunately it has become a very big struggle to survive.

Looks like we're used to saying a lie to get out of the pass but lie is a lie.

I think we get used to pious lies so that things function at the very best in Venezuela

I would have done the same thing, it is not the lie that might hurt you but the fact of the lack of humanity of the doctors who led you to tell it, but it is a situation that deserved it.

It is a good point and although the lie is doomed in the Bible it is true that by the family we are capable of anything. I hope your mommy feels better..

It's a disjunctive! There are always pious lies to save oneself but you have to see how bad you do lying.

Well, as long as you don't hurt anyone, I think of course it doesn't make it a habit.

It is unfortunate that we live in such a corrupted society, and if at least most human beings were honest, another story would be. Personally, I've also lied many times and I think most people have at some point. Although I don't have a lie for a time like you spent, most of the times it's been silly lies.

I find it a tricky question, because of the situation in which it happened...
When reading the phrase came into my mind: If the lie is still so fast the truth finds out..
Only that's my mind.. Sensitive is a completely different story...
