The truth can be very harmful. There are many instances when the truth is cruel. I don't thing truthfulness has anything at all to do with morality, or righteousness, or "goodness". So I totally disagree with numbers one. The only rule I really need is compassion. If I have compassion I will know when and when not to tell the truth- of I'll have a good guess. Sometimes self preservation must over-rule compassion (in cases of self defense, for example). Self preservation and compassion. Bookends to a happy life if you can find a good balance between them. (imo) That seems to be where most people are - not matter what religion they are. Of course some people are more toward one side or the other, less balanced.
