Also known as a continuing misrepresentation, a lie by omission occurs when an important fact is left out in order to foster a misconception. Lying by omission includes failures to correct pre-existing misconceptions. When the seller of a car declares it has been serviced regularly but does not tell that a fault was reported at the last service, the seller lies by omission. It can be compared to dissimulation.
You probably skipped this one because, if one has no intention of proselytizing, then their beliefs are not important to volunteering at a soup kitchen.
Yahoo is my homepage. Yes, it came up first. In that case I guess I jumped the gun and should've cross checked that definition.
ASSumptions, terrible little things.
