Lying and Christian Ethics - New Studies in Christian Ethics
Tollefsen, Christopher O. (University of South Carolina)
This book defends the controversial 'absolute view' that lying is always wrong. Whereas most people believe that lying for a good cause is morally acceptable, Tollefsen argues that Christians should support the absolute view, invoking Augustine and Aquinas to illustrate that lying violates the goods of integrity, sociality, religion, and truth.
