Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion

Bag om Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion

Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion is a philosophical work by the Scottish philosopher David Hume. It was first published in 1779, three years after Hume's death. The book is set in ancient Greece and consists of a series of dialogues between three characters: Cleanthes, Philo, and Demea. The three characters represent different philosophical positions on the existence and nature of God.Cleanthes is a proponent of natural theology, which argues that the existence and attributes of God can be inferred from the natural world. Philo is a skeptic who questions the validity of natural theology and argues that the nature of God is beyond human comprehension. Demea represents a more traditional, mystical approach to religion.The dialogues explore a range of philosophical arguments for and against the existence of God, including the argument from design, the problem of evil, and the limits of human knowledge. Hume uses the characters to present different perspectives on these issues and to challenge the reader's assumptions about the nature of God and the universe.Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion is considered one of Hume's most important works and a key text in the history of philosophy. It has been widely studied and debated by philosophers and theologians for centuries and continues to be a source of inspiration and controversy in contemporary debates about religion and science.It Seems Strange To Me, Said Cleanthes, That You, Demea, Who Are So Sincere In The Cause Of Religion, Should Still Maintain The Mysterious, Incomprehensible Nature Of The Deity, And Should Insist So Strenuously That He Has No Manner Of Likeness Or Resemblance To Human Creatures. The Deity, I Can Readily Allow, Possesses Many Powers And Attributes Of Which We Can Have No Comprehension: This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work
