On Lying (Again)

A couple of years ago, I made a blog post: The categories of truthfulness of information. I'm now finding that some of that information is viewed not quite as I had written.
Lies
So I've recently been researching the meaning of lying, and there seems to be quite the divide.
On one hand, some believe that lying is a deliberate act, and some believe that it directly translates to "untruth", whether deliberate or accidental. What is your understanding?
Would I be lying if I told you something I legitimately believed, which turned out not to be true? Are people actually invested in pseudoscience lying, or is it just the people who told them that?
As soon as I get this blog ready with comments again, I shall also add the ability to poll, so you can easily tell me your side of the story.
That's all for now.
