mental reservation

Here is a short piece by moral theologian Mark Latkovic on mental reservation. Here. This is an issue that deserves more attention.

People rely on the idea of mental reservation to mislead, while still thinking of themselves as truth-tellers. As Latkovic explains, it is important that we honor the good of truth.
