Default Another Poll: Did Paul Lie? Your Opinion

This is a development alongside Was Paul (deliberately) Lying? thread started by Helen.
If you want to argue about this, go to that thread and present your arguments.
What we need here are either of these options:

YES
NO
ABSTAIN


NOTE:
If you think Paul lied only once and said the truth the rest of the time, that means YES Paul did lie.
ie if out of 100% of his writings, you think he fudged the truth, misled, misrepresented or stated a falsehood only 1%, then you vote YES - Paul lied.

If you think one cant tell whether or not Paul lied, you abstain.

Assuming Paul is the one that wrote Corinthians, he lied.
So,
YES

Whoever wrote acts lied.

Arrow Paul a liar?

Greetings all,

I'd have to say -
NO

I think Paul realises humans lie, even obliquely admits he does too, but still argues it is wrong.

Paul believed in what he wrote, its just the meaning is unclear.

YES. I sincerely doubt that there is a single human who hasn't lied at least once in order to advance their cause, humans who are too young to have a cause excepted.
