Absolute Moral Authority
Last week we looked at issues when it comes to thinking moral authority is arbitrary or just happens to be. This week, Frame looks at absolute moral authority and where it comes from. Probably no surprise that God is going to be the source but do we run into circular issues by saying something is good because God decreed it and God is good because He's God? Frame tackles those claims.
