Philosophy & Belief

Roberta's husband had told her he was going out of town for a week to a business conference. Roberta misses him terribly and is looking forward to his return. You were also at the conference but left early because of other commitments. Roberta calls shortly after you return home and asks if you saw Jack at the conference. She was unable to reach him by phone and is very concerned. You know that he is not at the conference but, instead, is in Bermuda with her best friend, Joan. Do you lie and say he was at the conference, or do you tell Roberta the truth? Sissela Bok would most likely advise you to:

A. apply the test of publicity, which requires you to first make a public announcement of Jack's infidelity. B. do what feels personally right for you. C. tell Roberta the truth. Lying is always wrong because it is a violation of respect for persons. D. first ask yourself if you would want to be lied to if you were in Roberta's position.
