Question

Which of the following theories describes the government in which an individual is given “by God” the right to rule? a. Force Theory c. Divine Theory b. Evolution Theory d. Social Contract Theory

Answer 1

C. Divine theory

Or more specifically, the divine-right theory (since the divine theory only establishes that an action's morality and rightness is derived from god, whereas the divine right theory argues that a king is given the right to rule by a god).
