The Value of Picking Out the Liars

The biggest poker tournament of all time was recently won by a television producer and agent. The winner, Jamie Gold, defeated a starting field of nearly 9,000 players, and he credited his victory in part to his experiences reading people in Hollywood meetings. He said, "I have a greater sense of when people are telling the truth and when they are lying." (Los Angeles Times, 8/12/06)

His take was $12 million dollars, and while much of his success was certainly the result of a lot of luck, I couldn't help but think. So this is the value of looking at someone and truthfully divining their deception.

It is ironic that in the same day's Times was media pundit Tim Rutten's take on news service Reuters doctoring photos of the Lebanon-Israel conflict. He pointed out that this should be a much bigger story than it is. It may not have had the strongest legs because Reuters fired the photographer, issued apologies, and all that kind of stuff.

I don't think for a second that this will prevent more people from "doctoring" material to achieve their ends-- it is the Catholicist way on cue from the Jesuit creed "the ends justifies the means." (While the Jesuit may claim his creed is "To the greater glory of God," you'll see if you read the third chapter of Romans that the whole "To the greater glory of God" is quite demonic. Take a peek at Genesis 3:6, also, to see the standard for rationalizing all kinds of seemingly fine things.)

As much as Cain must prosecute the evildoing of the Catholicist Nation's inhabitants, it must be even more evil than the evildoer, and this requires the most profound, precise deception. We screech about a single Reuter's photograph, when the deception is all over the place and it always has been. The Agency of Cain must employ it as a matter of practice to do its job.

What is significant is that as much as they've been doing it for millennia, it seems so very few have seen it. So very few see it even today. You'd think people exposed to Scripture would be right on top of it, but alas, incorporated church members contract themselves with the Agency and become accomplishes to the deception. They're all in it too, so again, so few see it for what it is.

And when very few people can do an extraordinarily valued thing, the price of that skill goes up. Way up. Look at the poker tournament winner. His pay for picking out the liars? $12 million.

Yes, quite a valuable skill indeed. Except that, those who can pick out the liars don't quite get paid that much, and that's only because the practice is not as extraordinarily valued to begin with. This is because so many are so adept at it themselves, and being found out is a bit detrimental. (Didn't Gold win a few rounds by lying himself? Hmm?)

There are so many liars making a good living with the lie, who's there to value the truth?
