For roughly 30 years, I have been skeptical of the idea that Euthyphro-style dilemmas provide a decisive refutation of theistic metaethics. I have finally started to organize my thoughts on this topic. 

The link below is to an incomplete draft of an essay I've been writing about Euthyphro-style dilemmas against theistic metaethics. Any comments would be appreciated.

UPDATE (16-March-2022):

In response to the excellent feedback from Jason Thibodeau (see the comments below), I have slightly revised the draft. Version 2 of the draft may be found here:
