Once an entity appears to care more for the secrets it keeps
than the entity cares for the revealing of truth in any given situation, at
that point in time nothing the entity states is generally perceived as truthful
by anyone. This is especially so when
the truth that was withheld could affect the safety and well-being of others
from whom the truth is kept. When this
scenario comes to pass, it seems that nearly any amount of innuendo, hearsay,
or pretextual fabrications about that untruthful entity can no longer be
dismissed out-of-hand, regardless of how outlandish are any such claims about
that potentially untruthful entity. Again, this
would be so because that seemingly untruthful entity then no longer would be perceived
as truthful upon its denial of any outlandish claims to the contrary.
