oDavid Hume objects:
nMiracles violate natural law.
nNatural law is a reflection of our total experience.
nWe believe reports of witnesses to the extent they fit
our experience and doubt them to the
extent they donÕt.
nSo no miracle should be believed, since witnesses can lie
and human senses can be deceived.
oResponse:
nThe argument assumes the result, since miracle reports
are part of our total experience.
nHumeÕs procedure would explain away miracles even if they do occur.
