Question

What do some people find dissatisfying about the view that God commands right actions because they are right?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi

Instead of that statement one could say that God does not order us to do certain things just because they are correct, we must bear in mind that God is infinitely wise, He understands that being sincere is better than deception and thus orders us to be sincere. He observes that killing is not something right, therefore he commands us not to kill, and so we can take all the moral rules. In this way we will avoid the problems that could be the consequences of the first alternatives. An example is the commandments, since they are the result of their wisdom, knowing what is best, in this way the doctrine of God's goodness is maintained.

Answer 2

Answer:

What some people find dissatisfying about the view that God commands right actions because they are right, is that even though God could command actions that he deems are morally or justly right, he could also be commanding other actions that seem to be different from (or the direct opposite of) what he deems is morally or justly right. This makes people dissatisfied with the opinion that God commands right actions because he deems that they are right.
