, GENERAL SITUATION ETHICS QUESTION


INTRO:

What is situation ethics:

- A relativist ethical theory created by Jeremy Bentham which takes a consequentialist view that no actions
are intrinsically right or wrong
- Has an absolutist principle- to do the most loving thing
- Fletchers anti-war stance in the radical movements of the late 1950s led him to establish an ethical
theory based on what he considered the most important aspect of Christian morality- the law of love

My line of argument:

- Although I see merit in Fletchers ethics, and his intentions can be praised- the weaknesses lie in the
flexible and subjective nature of his theory as well as this overly optimistic view on human nature
