No- if it is going to save someone's life then I'd say that was a lie worth telling. Alternate Flags go up when I hear questions like this. There is WAY too much that is left unsaid. There may be layer upon layer of unwarranted assumption going on, and there is a possibility that although you are well-meaning, you may be letting too much of your own agenda in here, and it may be clouding your judgement. You could be starting out on a very unhealthy and slippery slope regarding how you are going to interact with people. It might very well be that the situation you are thinking of warrants lying, but this is not at all clear. If at all possible you need to get feedback from uninvolved people whose opinion you trust, and you need to say more about the situation.

Why should you not lie?

Lying is wrong for many reasons. You feel that it is wrong, even if you go ahead and do it; this is because people have a sense of right and wrong inside them.Here are some reasons you should not lie:Liars almost always get caught - sometimes it might take awhile, but in the modern world there are just too many ways for people to find out the truth!Nobody believes a liar. Once you are known to tell lies, nobody is going to trust you - not even your friends and lovers.Lies hurt. You might think that nobody gets hurt when you lie, but the person you lied to gets hurt because you betrayed him or her. And a lie can easily cause people to do things which hurt others.Doing something that you know is wrong makes it easier to do more bad things - eventually, you will become a bad person who doesn't know how to be good anymore. This is how drug addicts get started - they just do "a little bit" and soon they are lying in a gutter without a place to live.
