Divine Command Theory
« on: January 21, 2007, 11:50:58 PM »
Does morality depend on religion?  Is conduct right because God commands it, or does God command it because it is right?

Whenever the media needs an ethical opinion they always go to religous affiliates or members of clergy.  We see Pat Robertson on CNN when they are looking for a "qualified" moral opinion. Philosophers are forced to voice their opinions in unread books.  Is morality best understood only through the context of religon?
