Who Are the Liars, Really?

Sometimes I just look with amazement at people spending so much time and energy trying to figure out who the liars are. So many of them give up and just resign themselves to working real hard at being the best liars they can be. Many work at lying only because they are so afraid of how much they'll be exploited by the best liars--it's like a game. A most lethal one at that.

One of the things that gets me about this is that in order to identify the liars you've got to know the truth. So here are all these people, like bugs on meat, scrambling around out there trying to know the truth so they can be liars. Comical! And yes, quite tragic at the same time.

One reason they are just spinning their wheels is they'll be dust in the end anyway, unless they come to The One Who Is Truth, who would free them from the deceit rathole, but He's nowhere in their purview. So they'll keep scurrying about looking for truth to be a good liar even though the better liars will always get the better of them.
