why do we lie?

Why is it that the average person day to day says a lie?  And what determines one lie over another more severe in its original intent, or for that matter the principle.

I am no saint, on the matter, for the fact that I said a mere lie about going to school, or this job, or having this car, or not having this because of this.  Well, why do I do it? Is it the incompetence, linked back to being adopted from an orphanage and not understanding that original potential instilled in me, and not knowing who my father is, undoubtedly maybe? But chances are probably not.   Is it the human habit of wanting to be accepted by society, and if that means going to the farthest extreme necessary of shedding off a layer of ones integrity to do so, is that worth it?  Must be right?

In conclusion, what lie has more severity over another?  From telling a little white lie to stretch the truth, it still came from the first place right?  I've always been taught, be honest, even if it means sayikng your nothing but a foundation ready to be built on.  Anywho thought id throw the thought out there..  I suppose it all goes back to my post earlier about, "what do we have to lose"
