Question: 1 / 400

What approach might individual Christians take regarding contraception, depending on circumstances?

Utilitarianism.

Natural law.

Situation ethics.

Individual Christians may choose to follow a situation ethics approach for contraception depending on their personal and situational circumstances. Situation ethics suggests that moral decisions should be based on the most loving response in any given situation, rather than following a strict moral code or law (deontological ethics) or maximizing overall happiness (utilitarianism). This approach allows for flexibility and consideration of individual circumstances when making decisions, rather than following a predetermined moral stance. Basing decisions solely on natural law, as option B suggests, may not account for individual needs and circumstances.
