Existentialists rely on their gut feelings rather than absolute truth. They rely on themselves rather than God. The situation ethicist enters every decision-making situation with the assumption that the situation heavily influences ethical decisions and can even overturn existing morality.

Pragmatism says that whatever brings satisfaction and whatever works is right and good.
Pragmatism expresses one of the main inspirations of our culture.
To a pragmatist, the end justifies the means. Relativism can be expressed as cultural relativism, ethical relativism and relativism of personal worlds. Secular humanism dethrones God as the center of life and enshrines humanity instead. The tenets of humanism are atheism, evolution, amorality, autonomous man and a socialist, one worldview. The right to birth control, abortion and divorce should be recognized.
