Pathological Liar Definition:
a person who lies to the point of it being considered a disease or condition, an abnormally habitual liar
You are mistaking delusional psychosis with pathology. If he is a pathological liar (which it is obvious he is), then he will lie and know he's lying but not care. I'd describe this guy as a sociopath/Antisocial Personality Disorder, which is "a pervasive pattern of disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others that begins in childhood or early adolescence and continues into adulthood." This man has no regard for hurting others and doesn't really care about the damage he's doing. He appears to only have regard for his own needs and/or desires. He KNEW he was lying, because he changed his story when he got cornered, and he also, once cornered, found a new lie to claim that would allow him to avoid answering further questions. When he was cornered by Dr. Phil again, he made the excuse of being mistreated to completely walk away from the children he was so adament about protecting. He KNEW he was lying. so there's no way he is delusional by believing his lies. I hope that his wife gets LOTS of counseling, and I pray that God protects her and her children from violence at the hands of this man. I truly did find him to be one of the more frightening people I've ever seen on this show.
