III. Offenses Against Truth
2483
Lying is the most direct offense against the truth. To lie is to speak or act
against the truth in order to lead into error someone who has the right to know
the truth. By injuring man’s relation to truth and to his neighbor, a lie
offends against the fundamental relation of man and of his word to the Lord.
