- William Temple
- "There is only one ultimate and invariable duty, and its formula is 'Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.' How to do this is another question, but this is the whole of moral duty."
- Three approaches to moral thinking
- Legalism
- Antinomialism
- Fletcher claims that Situationism is the "middle ground" between the two extremes of Legalism and Antinomianism
- Fixed moral rules, for example the 10 commandments
- Legalism
- Denial of the possibility of any rules (e.g. Nietzsche, Sartre, other existentialists)
