Re: Is it Ethical?

One thing I established in my marriage is I don't ever lie to my wife or anyone for that matter. She knows if she asks me about an outfit or food she will hear the truth about it. She appreciates it, I think

Rahab lied, and her life was spared because of it. Every house in the city fell but hers.

I can see it now, I can lie to my boss, cheat on my taxes and lie to my wife all because Rahab did it and was rewarded.
