Ethically challenged or just astute
What do you all think? Is it wrong to intentionally create scenarios that will test whether or not someone will lie to you? Is it dishonest to ask someone a question to which you already know the answer, in an effort to test their truthfulness?
:) I can't imagine ever needing to concoct such a scheme for you. I know I can always count on the truth, even if the truth sounds something like, "Yo, you're a dumbass."
If it is I that you are trying to test, then yes, it is entrapment and it is wrong.
ReplyDeleteIf it's anybody else, I say, go get 'em.
