... notion of Divine Command, which is being
originated by William Ockham. It tells us that it
is an individuals duty to God, which alone should
be used, while trying to figure out whether any
particular action is moral or not. Yet, we cannot
be considering this theory seriously, because the

believe that the Reserve Clause has been
ineffective and that changes are made for the

agency, a paragraph in each player's contract that
allowed a baseball team to keep him indefinitely
until he was sold, traded or rele...
