The teleological approach abandons any claim to moral certainty. An example of teleological ethics is John Stuart Mill. A theory of obligation that argues that the rightness or wrongness of an act is determined by the consequences of the act. The action is made right or wrong after its performance. An advocate of consequentialism is James Burtness.
Love alone becomes the basis for all ethical decisions.
The approach is relativistic and pragmatic. Morality, according to character ethics, does not find its basis in the action but the actor. The focus is primarily on character, not conduct. Examples of this approach include Alasdair MacIntyre, Stanley Hauerwas, and Gilbert Meilaender. Justification by grace through faith in Christ alone is foundational for ethical task.
