Do actions speak louder than words?

If so,
what would cause you to react?

Being lied to or
catching someone in your wallet?
 
Well.... For me, being lied to is one of my worst piss offs, but at most would earn a conversation calling them out. Catching someone stealing from me.... Well, I dont waste words on a thief. The thing is this, neither person can be fully trusted in the future.

For me, no contest....catching someone in my wallet.
...the action tells the truth every time.

Everybody has lied....often to themselves before they lie to another person.
...it gets very hard to track.....but often you can still forgive....
....'cause we're all in the same boat.

I guess there are some lies told with deliberate malice that are just as
bad as actions....like false witness to send someone to jail...but they
can still be tough to ascertain how much aforethought was involved.
 
doesn't much matter

Doesn't much matter. In my younger days I have resorted to nonverbal communication when lied to or stolen from, sometimes both at the same time. Same thing when lied about. Sometimes you have to make people understand that actions have consequences. Like stealing, lying is an action.

It's An Easy Question.......

Lies vs. Wallet?

Wallet every time.......a thief is the scum of the earth....dishonesty, which could even involve motives of greed, is unforgiveable.......even if it was done because of a pressing predicament the thief was confronted with and had a dire need for the money.......a thief is a scumbag......plain and simple and those are meant to be discarded just like a thief.


Why not Lies? Although it can be argued that even a tiny white lie is nonetheless still a lie, the mere question of lies vs. wallet fails to consider there are degrees of deception, i.e., lies. For the purist, a white lie might be viewed to be very serious but I think a white lie is a small infraction compared to stealing my money, even a dollar.....win it, ask for it, but don't try stealing it.

What happens if you Steal a Kiss from a girl?

Whites lies? Who here hasn't ever said in the morning, "I'll
call you later".

Anyone that hasn't told a White Lie in their lives is a liar liar, pants on fire.

Lying is the Teacher.
