Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals

Meer over het boek

David Hume's "Essay On Miracles" presents a critical examination of the concept of miracles, arguing that no testimony can convincingly support the occurrence of a miracle unless its falsehood would be more extraordinary than the miracle itself. Hume challenges the reliability of miraculous claims and emphasizes the need for rigorous skepticism in evaluating such events, making a significant contribution to the philosophy of religion and the debate on faith versus reason.
