Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Divine Command Theory argues that what is morally right is what God directs, and conversely, what is morally wrong is what God prohibits. It is based on the belief that morality comes directly from God and is revealed to humans through religious texts and teachings. It does not necessarily argue that religion is the only basis for making moral decisions, nor does it require individuals to follow natural law. While some proponents of Divine Command Theory may value religion highly, it does not necessarily mean that one cannot be a critical thinker without it.
