Zusammenfassung: | God's Own Ethics introduces a number of philosophical subfields into conversation with philosophy of religion and metaethics in an attempt to discern the ethics of God.

Specifically, I argue that a God lacking in moral perfection of the sort familiar to humans is either unrecognizable as God, or is open to the Ivan Karamazov' objection that such a God deserves neither worship nor allegiance. |
