"It's not you, it's me"

^^ Yes

A lie is a lie the way I look at it. A pathological lie is the worse kind of lie.

Yes and I say them all the time, especially at work.

You may say “great idea" to your boss, without the slightest intention of following it, because it lacks imagination and you don’t want to offend your boss by saying so.

lies told with the intention of benefiting others, are perceived to be more moral than individuals who tell the truth

If you are lying taking the fall for someone, like your kid I suppose. But only if there is an undeserved threat I guess...

This may be a little to slippery...

Of course. Many people lied to keep Jews hidden during the Holocaust, for example.

what kind of lies do you not respect?

Nope. Just horrible stupidity.
