  • No it's a lie, he was talking in the present tense and the event actually happens in the future.

    • "I'm going to be 30 someday"

      Since it's not true now, by your definition I'm lying yes?

      • no, but he was claiming something being a fact NOW(stately that group X wants to take over, or has intentions of doing so in the future), when it was NOT.

        "I am married" would be a better example.
        Even if i would eventually be, it's not true now. Just because i may be later does not make it any more true now.

        • I think you're missing my point here. What I'm saying is that although it's not true in the present it's going to be.

          Saying it's a lie because it's not true in the beginning is like saying, "it's not a cake...coz it wasn't in the beginning".

          No matter what is was before, it is a cake now.

          • yeah, but those eggs, flour and milk will not become a cake by itself.

            If you KNOW you are going to make a cake, thats pretty obvious, but in YOUR scenario, it depends on the actions of others, so ultimately, you are claiming those ingredients WILL become a cake, no, you CLAIM they will be a cake tomorrow, then try to convince someone to bake one. Either it's all a setup, then there never was a lie to begin with, thus no lie that could become a truth. Or you lied and just hoped it would be the outcome you suggested, then it's a lie nontheless.
