    In this essay, I have decided to explain and evaluate the divine command theory (DCT). The divine command theory focuses on the conception that God’s commandments are the foundation of ethical choices (Holt, T 2008). The theory states that whatsoever God wills as moral is moral and what God forbids is immoral. (Rachels, J., S 2007). The theory is very clear on its views in that if you want to know if something is moral go to God those that live by this theory look to religious book such as the…

    God 's Call, by John E. Hare, is based on three lectures Hare gave at Calvin College in which he presents and defends his version of Divine Command Theory.

In the third he defends his theory, and compares it to his understanding of Kant 's theory of ethics. Hare argues that the history of moral philosophy is a story of compromise. There exist two…

    If anything god says is to be taken as good and true, then he cannot be wrong. If he cannot be wrong, then there is nothing to make his commands right either. For example, if a game was created with the rule that a specific person could never lose, it would be meaningless to say that he is good at that game. No matter how many times he won, there would be no skill or wisdom involved as it…

    Gensler: Divine Command Theory Gensler’s main argument for the Divine Command Theory is to argue the moral reasons for the existence of God. He gives the premises that everyone knows objective moral duties. Then comes the idea that if there are objective moral duties there has to be something that makes them moral law. For this the only answer that makes sense is God because it cannot be a person or other individuals in society since we do not have the authority to tell someone is they do…

    Divine Command Theory is the belief that an action is morally good if and only if that action is commanded by God. This means that actions not directly commanded by God are wrong, such as murder, stealing, adultery, etc. The way this is worded is very similar to virtue theory, which states that an action is morally good if and only if the action is good for the person doing the action. Rather than basing the morality of a situation on whether it is just or pleasure-making for other people, it…

    and therefore possible sources of knowledge. Identifying one source of knowledge becomes problematic. Finally, morality cannot depend on the commandments of God. If morality depended on the commandments of God, either morality is arbitrary or God’s command is irrelevant. After careful examination of the arguments supporting the view that religion is essential for morality, it is clear that morality can exist independently from…

    Socrates during Plato’s Euthyphro. The question is seen to object the Divine Command Theory. Socrates asked, “is the pious loved by the gods because it is pious, or is it pious because it is loved by the gods?” or in other words, “Are morally good acts willed by God because they are morally good, or are they morally good because they are willed by God?” (Philosophy of Religion The Origin of the Euthyphro Dilemma). The Divine Command theorist faces problems that will not allow them to be able to…
