Description

Description

In the posthumously published "Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion", the Enlightenment philosopher David Hume attacks many of the traditional arguments for the existence of God, expressing the belief that religion is founded on ignorance and irrational fears. Despite the calm and gentle tone - sometimes even diplomatically ambiguous - the conversations among Hume's vividly rendered fictional characters form perhaps the most thorough case ever made against orthodox Christian theological thought and the "theism" of the time, which used the wonders of creation as decisive proof of God's Plan. Hume's characters discuss these issues with exceptional passion, clarity, and humor, in one of the most captivating philosophical works ever written.
