Hume, Causation and Two Arguments Concerning God
In Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion, Hume (1779/1993) appeals to his account of causation (among other things) to undermine certain arguments for the existence of God.

| 520 | |a In Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion, Hume (1779/1993) appeals to his account of causation (among other things) to undermine certain arguments for the existence of God. If anything can cause anything, as Hume claims, then the Principle of Causal Adequacy is false; and if the Principle of Causal Adequacy is false, then any argument for Gods existence that relies on that principle fails. Of course, Humes critique has been influential. But Humes account of causation undermines the argument from evil at least as much as it undermines arguments for theism, or so I argue. I then suggest that Humes account of causation can be used to formulate an alternative argument against classical theism. | ||
