kant

Suppose you are only aloud four absences during one semester of school. This means you will not be allowed to graduate. The teacher gives you a notice halfway through the semester telling you that you are going to be withdrawn because of one access absence. The teacher then excuses the absence and you are allowed to remain in the course and you receive a degree. You decide to lie to the teacher and tell her you attended a funeral on the day you were absent. If the consequences of you lying means saving someone’s life then it would be morally correct to lie.

Another example of lying can prove Kant to be wrong. his victim although if you lie he might never locate him. Kants example in his essay was not concrete enough to prove that you should never lie. Even in his own example the chances would be fifty, fifty that the murderer wouldn’t believe you.

. Also suppose the victim had left his house with out you Knowing and the murder gets him. In this case Kants theory would be wrong. In this case you are at fault by lying.

I think that you have to look at the moral side of the issue.
