Post #8: Comparing and Contrasting LYING versus ACTING

            Most of the people in the world think that acting and lying is the same thing. But I think the opposite, they are different. Yes I do agree that they are both not telling the truth and those general things, but beside that, there are differences if you look closely inside. First, the most obvious difference; Lying is a word description and acting is an action. You can lie by your mouth but you can’t act by your mouth. You can act with the help of your mouth, but then the mouth role will be count as a type of lying. The same problem with acting, you can’t lie by your actions because lying is a part of your words. Secondly, acting isn’t the same as lying because when you’re acting, you are not being yourself. You are copying, pretending or trying to be someone else. This does not cause much effect on other people sometimes since the actions are not exactly meant to be directly for someone. For lying, it’s a different because when you’re lying, you have to be talking to someone. That means the words are actually being specifically delicate to that person. This cause more effects because it could be listed as betraying. Once the truth is found, the liar will face a big consequence. In conclusion, I think that you should not either lie or act, because they are both bad.
