Jesus seemed to follow situation ethics because he over-ruled what the Old Testament said when he thought it was unloving. For example when a man with a paralysed arm asked to be healed on the Sabbath Day, Jesus healed him because he said it was more important to do good than to obey the low not to work on the Sabbath.
They think it is wrong to ignore the consequences of your actions. You should only do what will produce good results. So they would steal the nuclear weapons and allow the twelve year old girl to have an abortion.
They believe that Jesus' statement, that the only laws are to love God and love your neighbour, means that Christians should always do what will have the most loving results.
