davboz says:

-<<"Basically this philosophy teaches that it is the situation that determines the degree of honesty that is practiced. This leaves it up to the individual to determine what is right and wrong. This is a by-product of the common philosophy prevalent in society today of, truth being relevant. It is up to each individual to determine what is right and wrong, there are no absolutes. Honesty and integrity can never be taught when the defining of such is left up to each individual. There are absolutes ">>-
