This is more or less tangential to the main point of your post, with which I agree completely, but I wasn't so much defending a more reasonable view of honesty ("don't lie, except to nazis") as I was simply trying to contrast two different views ("don't lie, except to nazis" and "don't lie, ever, or you're a bad person") and trying to see where people thought the best line to draw was.
Sorry about that. I meant something along the lines of "MBlume quotes people who espouse other variants of radical honesty, and incidentally those variants are more feasible than Kant's." Didn't mean to imply that there was only one.
I'll rephrase when I get the chance.
Honestly, no worries =)
It was an awesome article, made a good point -- if I did anything to contribute to that, I'm glad of it.
