First, I've heard so may hijack Paul's words here to be a blank check for anything they'd like... his words must have confines, and those confines must be that it always points to the cross, is in love, is honest and meets the criteria of 1 cor 13 (IMO). I'm sure there are others. Point being, ethics mean something, and we define this according to the Gospel.
Next, "becoming all things" is about the individual -- not about abusing the flock so that they will love Jesus more.
