Whether he went as Adam, Jr., or God, Jr., I'm sure he won the race.

How about the use of selected facts? When you are required to give an explanation to someone-- spouse, supervisor, parent, teacher, police-- you tell the truth, but avoid what implicates yourself, in addition to using word choices or emphases meant to lighten how much fault is yours? ... "The...

So lying is justified in such a situation, but other sins are not? What are the reasons to which you refer?
