Answer :
Answer:
Both Aristotle and Confucius approved of deception in certain situations, such as to protect oneself or others from harm, or to promote the greater good. However, they believed that deception should only be used as a last resort and that honesty should be the default mode of behavior. For Aristotle, the use of deception should be guided by the virtues of practical wisdom and moderation, while for Confucius, the use of deception should be guided by the principle of filial piety and the Golden Rule.
