What is the difference between being confused and telling a lie?

Intention. A lie is a deliberate falsehood. Then what is being confused? Glad you asked. Being confused, as opposed to lying, is telling a falsehood while believing it to be true. The information is also false as with a lie, but it is not an intentional attempt to deceive. Another difference: Lying in court is called perjury and it is illegal, but the court must be convinced of an attempt to deceive, whereas anyone can give false information if they are confused. False information from a confused person is not a crime.
