| Summary: | Hume divides all propositions into two parts: the relations of ideas and matters of
fact. He considers the first part certain and matters of fact that makes us aware of
the future and can take us beyond sensory perception are uncertain. He believes all
reasoning about matters of fact is based on the relation of cause and effect and the
principle of uniformity of nature. Based on his especial epistemology, argues that the
principle of causality is a mental habit and the principle of uniformity of nature is
matter of facts must be proved by experience that its proof and argument is probable
that leads to a circle and ultimately expresses his skepticism. Commentators of
transcendent wisdom based on the intuitive knowledge of the soul in its own works
and actions, proved the idea of causality. They have discussed the unity of sensory
and sensible theory, along with the principle of self-evident of causality that these
theories only explain the origin of the concept of causality and its generality.
However, the main question is how can causality be attributed to objective
instances? In response, we have discussed the combination and sum of reason and
sense using the experimental method. |
