Lying is natural

In our culture, honesty is the norm. Lying is the aberration.

But lying is probably more natural. Lying is the Venus Fly Trap that emits a smell like rotting meat. Lying is the tiger’s stripes that hide him in the jungle. Lying is the flower whose sexual parts look like a bee.

In this universe, lying is the norm. Messages only occasionally correspond to anything we would call Truth. This is the way of nature, a law of the universe, and one would be foolish to forget this.
