If something is false, how should we regard it? Can we take part in make-believe, false things, "for fun" or "because we enjoy them", or "because the children have such a good time" or "because that's when the family gathers"? Are any of these valid excuses to take part in things that are simply based on falsehood?

Answer From The Annual Reading Schedule - Week 18 Notes For Exodus: No (Exodus 23:7). We are to be far, far, from a false matter. There are many "false matters" today in this world. One is perpetuating a series of lies that surround a time in the winter. In the winter, many of the things taught to children around that time of the year are all based on make-believe, lies, and falsehood. There are other examples common in our society. We who want to stay far from falsehood will stay far from all of these lies regardless of how popular these false things may be with others.
