I have never heard of these long words or understand what they mean so perhaps I do not belong in this thread.

However I looked at wikipedia and it linked consequentialist with the horrid phrase "the end justifies the means".  If the means is wrong, it is wrong no matter the aim.

There is right and there is wrong. Do right, do not do wrong. But more than that, want to do what is right, do not want to do what is wrong.
