[QUOTE="Ophiolite, post: 77618707, member: 234799"] "Falsehood" is not a word I would typically use. In my vocabulary it would be a synonym for a lie, but I accept that there could be important, though perhaps subtle, distinctions between the two. So, if someone knowingly says something that is not true then they are lying, they are uttering a falsehood, but if they state something that is untrue while thinking it it true, that is not a lie, that is the expression of a mistaken understanding. Would you tell me what your thinking is on that? I think [USER=185184]@Nithavela[/USER] directed his question to me and it seems a reasonable question. I would feel more comfortable if you left the "troll watch" to me, for the moment at least. [/QUOTE]
