Prompt: The Euthyphro Problem can be expressed with the following question: "Is an action wrong because God forbids it or does God forbid it because it is wrong?" If we take the first option, we seem to say that right and wrong are determined by an arbitrary use of God's power. If we take the second option, we seem to say that right and wrong are independent of God. Theists often try to solve the problem by arguing there is a third option: We might say that right and wrong are determined by God's commands, but that these commands are not arbitrary because of God's inherently good character. Being a good God, God would never command us to punt puppies, for example. Does this solve the problem? For the sake of the discussion, don't worry about demanding proof that such a God exists. The issue here is not whether God exists, it is whether that tells us anything about right and wrong
