Ethical Theories in Religious Philosophy: Beyond Divine Command

No, religious philosophers can hold a variety of different ethical theories, including the divine command theory, natural law theory, virtue ethics, and many others. The divine command theory is just one of many ethical theories that religious philosophers have proposed and defended, and it is by no means the most widely accepted or influential.

Here are a few examples of religious philosophers who hold to different ethical theories:

- Divine command theory: Thomas Aquinas, William of Ockham, John Calvin.

- Natural law theory: Thomas Aquinas, Hugo Grotius, John Locke.

- Virtue ethics: Aristotle, Al-Ghazali, Thomas Aquinas, Dietrich von Hildebrand.

- Utilitarianism: John Stuart Mill, Henry Sidgwick, William James.

- Kantian ethics: Immanuel Kant, H. J. McCloskey, Onora O'Neill.

- Ethics of care: Carol Gilligan, Nel Noddings, Virginia Held.

This list is just a small sample of the many different ethical theories that religious philosophers have defended. There is no one single "religious ethic" that all religious philosophers agree on, and in fact, there is a great deal of diversity and debate among religious philosophers about ethical issues.
