One humdinger of a lie: the government is here to help you, and attend to your best interests.

OH YES BEST ANSWER YET. This world is just a leggos toy village, false because the rest of the universe is not as dense. Wait a minute, what, (yeah the rest of the higher dimensions DO NOT BLEED). This three D is not REAL, its a television show. Another thought on the greatest lie; that God exists but we must have faith IT DOES, even though it WILL NOT show Itself to us (what is this lunacy).

Biggest lie ever told to humanity in my opinion is; (and i actually think im on to something), that we are all individuals. Lets assume for a moment that there is a man with a white beard up in the clouds, well, all of us must have come from him, we had to because there is nothing else besides the creator, So that would suggest that we are all the same being. Now, if we knew this, then the world would be a very different place. Why would we hurt and lie and cheat another person , if we knew that they were we, and we them. (too many we's sorry)

HoneyBooBoo isn't a demon, just an inbred pile of white trash. I still want to know what genius thought that group of trailer park royalty was "entertaining". The only thing entertaining about them is the fact uneducated crap like that can make millions off of their grotesque family.

We are all God individualized, and this truth is the major MISNOMER ever. Its like a gigantic trick is played by ITSELF upon ITSELF. If we recognised the concept of GOD as human, there would be no wars but maybe no cartoons either.

Is it God laughing at itself? IM NOT LAUGHING. This is (time in point) the recorded visuals of the blatant degeneration of a nobel specie. This is the exploitation of the DREGS of society. It makes money, its entertainment of the lowest form of humor describing the basest of human stupidity. I am at a loss as to why engendering the worst of human proclivity (bad manners doesnt come close), ignorance; the worst of human behavior becomes "FreakShow" reality television. The worst of the worst is TOSH.0 disguised as a comedy of human errors, is in fact a testimonial as to why not kill off the human race YET AGAIN, Atlantian Style. Pinpointing the worst of the dirty diaper and making money from it "deemed as just comedic style" is in itself so destructive to the Nature/Intent of the humanbeing, Id like to meet Mr. Tosh; but I suspect hes a coward.

The biggest lie told by humanity is that telepathy is not real.

The vast, vast, majority of humans can hear other people's thoughts while people who are schizo cannot. This deceives schizos and to aware schizos it is used to bully schizos into following the majority and pushing them into thinking that the majority is a benevolent people yet the majority never contrast that with all the wars, violence, and evil that they start.

It is quite ironic.

Humans have not been lied to - they just believe in things and they shouldn't.

I dont know if this is the greatest lie ever told, but it bugs the living hell out of me.

"Patience is a virtue."

Virtue ? My furry butt it is!

Like consistency, it is a virtue of the dead. Among the living patience has next to no value. It is people being patient, which means that despite various changes of government in various nations, the rich powerful few, are always able to exert thier power over the poor, powerless many. It is the patience of the many, which means that these idiots and thier cheque books still rule the roost. If patience was abandoned in favour of immediate and unstoppable rage, they would not dare to do what they do, the way they do it.

It is patience with murderers, child molestors, and serial rapists, which see prison populations grow, and prisons overcrowd. If there were less patience in the system, then these wastes of flesh would be summarily removed from the gene pool, and thier upkeep would not drain our resources like a cancer on an organ.

Patience means emotions which should be freely expressed, and worn on the sleeve, have to be swallowed , and opinions which ought to be acted upon, ignored or repressed, all for the sake of virtue. Its utter rot. Be impatient. Impatience will stop people mugging old ladies, and shooting up drugs, and murdering people for kicks. It will be better for the world than an over abundance of patience.

Obviously, I am not suggesting that one should smack a kid upside the head for being a slow learner, or that one ought to resort to violence without just provocation. But remaining patient in the face of stimulus which ought to result in carnage, is not a virtue. It is as much of a sin as constant rage, total anger, and unreasonable violence in the face of fair treatment.

THE CAKE IS A LIE

Seriously, though - I'd have to say the idea that there can be infinite growth in a finite system is a whopper.

I can't pick just one!
How about my top five?

1. Religion
2. The God Story
3. The earth is ours and can be divided into sections that we can own
4. That man is somehow superior over other animals
5. That there is one right way to live

That we are descended from apes is only one of the many lies we are told, though it seems to be the one which most people believe. Perhaps I'm wrong but it seems to me that there are too many differences between the human races for me to see how we can all be decended from the same source, unless we are the result of genetic interference from an outside source(s).
I don't think we'll know the truth concerning our origin until NASA and the controlled government decide to come clean with what they know about Mars, and our moon.

Didn't read all the replies yet, but here's my answer to the OP.

What has been the greatest lie ever told to humanity?

Capitalism is freedom.

2nd greatest lie...

That communism is state control of the means to produce. or a state system at all.

3rd greatest lie...

Socialism is the state social-safety net, welfare.

Very good post, although it doesn't, strictly speaking, answer the question. The single biggest and blackest lie is that there is no purpose (beyond survival) in our universe, closely followed by the lie that we have no free will.
