Answer:

Answer:

Human law is made and known by man himself, while divine law is made by God and, apart from revelation, is known only by God. Natural law, on the other hand, is made by God but known or knowable by man. It is that part of God's law which man can know by himself by the natural light of reason.


4. How can we know what is the proper thing to do in Divine Command Theory?​


Answer:

Thus, divine command theory gives us reason to worry that God's commands are arbitrary as universal moral standards of action. They may or may not be benevolent, loving, or have any other property we consider morally praiseworthy, and they may in fact be cruel and harsh. Divine command theory makes no guarantees.

10. there are sample laws . Identify each law if it is natural,divine ,church or Civil law ​


Answer:

“Law is an ordinance of reason for the common good, promulgated by the one who is in charge of the community” (St. Thomas Aquinas, STh I-II, 90, 4; CCC 1976). Law is primarily a reasonable plan of action, “a certain rule and measure of acts whereby man is induced to act or is restrained from acting” (S.t., 1–2, q. 90, aa. 1, 3; S.c.g., 3, 114).


11. 3. Is it possible to maintain a natural law theory without believing in the divine source? Why or why not?


Answer:

Natural law is the universal standard that directly reflects human nature. It is true regardless of cultural influences. The problem is that mankind is unable to agree on the definition of natural law. The problem is not so much the confidence that there is a moral law, but rather in our knowledge of it. It is essentially an epistemological problem. This means that we can only know the perfect standard with divine source of revelation.

“In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his/her own eyes.”

- Judges 21:25

16. Contrast Divine Law and Natural Law​


This is the answer of this question.

- Natural law refers to moral principles common to most or all human cultures. ... Divine law, on the other hand, is law promulgated by God via revelation. Divine law is not univerally known, though it may be universally binding.

Explanation:

¤ Divine Law comprises any body of law that is perceived as deriving from a transcendent source, such as the will of God or gods – in contrast to man-made law or to secular law. ... Medieval Christianity assumed the existence of three kinds of laws: divine law, natural law, and man-made law.

¤ Natural Law is a system of law based on a close observation of human nature, and based on values intrinsic to human nature that can be deduced and applied independent of positive law. According to natural law theory, all people have inherent rights, conferred not by act of legislation but by "God, nature, or reason."

Answer:

1 . No.

Explanation :

All really intelligent people see God in all this creation. God’s signature is in EVERYTHING we can test and study.

For example: Every rule given to the Jews about how to live, reproduce (who you can breed with), how to quarantine, and what to eat is proven by modern science as to the molecular reasons for this. Only God would have had that knowledge 3500 years ago.

2. The laws of nature are supported by laws that require us to care about each other, so I suppose traffic laws and those against murder and theft would apply. Laws that violate nature’s laws are abundant in our culture. All sorts of laws that benefit the very wealthy and harm others, that allow us to harm nature, that, in general, exploit rather than support the common good.

19. do we need to know the right and wrong even without Divine Command Theory


Divine Command Theory

Philosophers both past and present have sought to defend theories of ethics that are grounded in a theistic framework. Roughly, Divine Command Theory is the view that morality is somehow dependent upon God, and that moral obligation consists in obedience to God’s commands. Divine Command Theory includes the claim that morality is ultimately based on the commands or character of God, and that the morally right action is the one that God commands or requires. The specific content of these divine commands varies according to the particular religion and the particular views of the individual divine command theorist, but all versions of the theory hold in common the claim that morality and moral obligations ultimately depend on God.

Divine Command Theory has been and continues to be highly controversial. It has been criticized by numerous philosophers, including Plato, Kai Nielsen, and J. L. Mackie. The theory also has many defenders, both classic and contemporary, such as Thomas Aquinas, Robert Adams, and Philip Quinn. The question of the possible connections between religion and ethics is of interest to moral philosophers as well as philosophers of religion, but it also leads us to consider the role of religion in society as well as the nature of moral deliberation. Given this, the arguments offered for and against Divine Command Theory have both theoretical and practical importance.

30. why the Divine Command Theory a problematic source of morality.​


Answer:

Divine command theory is the belief that things are right because God commands them to be. In other words, it means that things which are considered wrong or unethical are wrong because they are forbidden by God.

Explanation:

A standard toy model of divine command theory (DCT) says that right and wrong are fixed or determined by God's commands. ... The common response is that God could command something horrible, and that wouldn't make it right, but divine command theory implies that it would be right, so divine command theory is wrong.

Questions;

Why the Divine Command Theory a problematic source of morality.

✎Answer

The Omnibenevolence Objection. On Divine Command Theory, it problematically appears that God's goodness consists in God doing whatever he wills to do. Moreover, on Divine Command Theory, God could not be seen as possessing moral virtues, because a moral virtue would be a disposition to do an action that God commands
