    I prefer lies. Yes we all want the truth, but the truth is, most things that are important to us we a lied to about. I recognize lies because I have examined and questioned so many of them. When something does not fit into the lie category it requires more examination to quantify as truth. Lies lead me to truths.

    I have always “thought” I preferred the Truth because I would be able to act in accordance with the way it really is, altho reality is relative???

    I don’t prefer either. Both can do good and both can do bad. Its where they lead you that matters.
