Situation Ethics as a relativistic and teleological theory can, to a certain extent, work in society. Situation ethics is a theory in which agape love must be reached through the consequence of an action. This theory was developed by Joseph Fletcher.
Situation Ethics as a relativistic theory is flexible and practical. It takes into account the situation a person is faced with and can help make decisions in situations where, from a legalistic point of view, all options are wrong. This allows the theory to adapt to every situation and result in the most amount of agape love being achieved
Being a teleological theory it ensures people consider the likely outcome of their actions before they take them. This allows the person to consider all the possible actions they could take before leaping into a situation. This also allows the most amount of love to be achieved in the end result.
Being a relativistic theory allows people the individual freedom to make decisions for themselves, these people are not strapped down with strict rules which can trap them in non-loving situations.
As a teleological theory it is pragmatic and realistic – concentrating on the outcome of an action. This results in the end being the focus of the action which relies on the person thinking of the consequences. They should always make the most loving choice as they are the children of God.

However, o Many people argue that we need rules to avoid issues such as moral chaos. Some people argue that humans can sometimes take advantage of the freewill given to them by, choosing to go against god and take the wrong moral path. This can result in the least loving outcome being reached, this not only goes against the teachings of the church but it also goes against the guiding principle of situation ethics itself as it does not produce the most loving outcome.
Pople cannot accurately predict the outcome of their actions. Some people will not follow their own guidance to the full extent which can result in the wrong moral action being taken. Not everybody has the same amount of self-control.
Situation ethics gives so much freedom to the individual it is difficult to decide what action to take. They have too much responsibility upon them to make the right loving decisions for themselves, they need guidance to help them along the way.
To conclude, situation ethics is compatible with society as it gives more freedom in the moral decision made by people, and allows them to adapt their actions to result in the most loving consequence.
