Do you tell the truth?

There is no way to be certain just by asking. Someone who is lying would lie about telling the truth.The "Liar's Paradox" is that no one can rationally answer a question about the truth by saying "I am lying." This is clearly because if you are telling the truth, you say "I am telling the truth" and if you are actually lying (about lying), you would again say "I am telling the truth" (a lie).If you said you were lying, you would have to be telling the truth, but you're not because you are lying. This is similar to the double-negative paradigm ("He's not right...he's just not wrong").


How can you be honest and never lie?

Well. "Lying" and "not telling the truth" are not always the same thing. "Lying is where you tell a person something with the purpose to deceive them. You can lie and still tell the truth. Here's an example. Obviously, if I told you the box was red and it really was red and I knew it was red, then I would be telling you the truth and not lying. If I told you the box was blue but it was really red but I thought it was blue, then I would be telling you the truth but I would not be lying. Now if I told the box was blue but it was really red and I knew it was red, then I would be both lying and not telling you the truth. And if I told you the box was blue but it was really red but I thought it was blue, then I would be lying but I would be telling you the truth. To answer your question, lying and being honest are the same things.
