God’s Deontic Perfection
Res Philosophica 90 (1):69-95 (2013)
Abstract
I offer part of an account of divine moral perfection. I defend the claim that moral perfection is possible, then argue that God has obligations, so that one part of his moral perfection must be perfection in meeting these. I take up objections to divine obligations, then finally offer a definition of divine deontic perfectionAuthor's Profile
