On lying

Post13 Jul 2013

One of my favorite quotes is said to have come from the Persian poet Rumi and goes ...
    "The definition of a fool is someone who is honest to dishonest people".
The BKWSU is institutionally dishonest and BKs have become very fond of stealing famous people's jewels (philosophy/quotes) to promote their religion ... even if by their own religion's theory, those individuals are relative ignorant and impure. Presumably this because they are aware of the lack of good quotes their god actually has ... and the many which embarrass them in public and hide ... or the general paucity of its philosophy. Or perhaps it is as a screen, a facade, to hide behind and distract from what they are really about... to make them look good and more worldly. Or perhaps it's just a fad or good for business, I don't know ... but I would like to offer them a few quotes from wise and famous people.

The first seems most fitting ...
"There is nothing in the world more shameful than establishing one's self on lies and fables".

- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
