" As for those standards, honesty is certainly a
primary virtue. Primary, and ubiquitous. I cannot think of any
professional practice that would not have honesty on its short list of
core
virtues."
Again, I'm going to take a contrary view. It is not "honesty" that is
primary, but "integrity."
The short form of an argument for my position is that we can all (easily)
think of situations where honesty is not the best polict.
The long form of the argument is developed very well in The recent book,
INTEGRITY, written by Stephen Carter. Stephen, incidentally, will bring
out another book of the same kind (this year, I believe) with the title
"CIVILITY."
