The over-simple answer: That depends. "Protect yourself" from what, exactly? From murder? Yes. From paying the just penalties for your actions? No. *** The more correct answer: (1) lying is always immoral (2) so, for a perfectly-moral person, the ONLY time they should lie is: (2a) if ALL available options result in immoral consequences, and (2b) lying is the option that results in the least immoral consequences

Hmm, wouldn't that depend on whether you got caught or not? 1/23/24
