    I think that is true. Actually, all our evidence of the facts depends on what we feel or what we remember.And that is related to the cause and effect.

    There is not a greater number of philosophical reasonings, displayed upon any subject, than those, which prove the existence of a Deity, and refute the fallacies of Atheists; and yet the most religious philosophers still dispute whether any man can be so blinded as to be a speculative atheist. How shall we reconcile these

    我们都承认,任何事物的存在都有原因,而所谓机会,一经详细检查就会发现,只是个消极意义的词,它不指自然界中存在的任何真实的能量。然而人们却声称有些原因是必然的,有些不是必然的

    “Pyrrhonism” 全部笔记(1) 去书内

    Pyrrhonism, philosophy of Skepticism derived from Pyrrho of Elis (c. 370–c. 272 BCE), generally regarded as the founder of ancient Skepticism. He identified as wise men those who suspend judgment (practice epochē) and take no part in the controversy regarding the possibility of certain knowledge. He proposed the neutral position of accepting things as they appear without further analysis. Pyrrhonism profoundly influenced philosophical thought in 17th-century Europe with the republication of the Skeptical works of Sextus Empiricus, who had codified Greek Skepticism about the turn of the 3rd century CE, and its force has resounded to the present day.

    “A correct Judgement observes a contrary method” 全部笔记(1) 去书内

    The illiterate may reflect on the disposition of the learned, who, amidst all the advantages of study and reflection, are commonly still diffident in their determinations; and if any of the learned be inclined, from their natural temper, to haughtiness and obstinacy, a small tincture of Pyrrhonism might abate their pride, by showing them, that the few advantages, which they may have attained over their fellows, are but inconsiderable, if compared with the universal perplexity and confusion, which is inherent in human nature. In general, there is a degree of doubt, and caution, and modesty, which, in all kinds of scrutiny and decision, ought for ever to accompany a just reasoner.

    This narrow limitation, indeed, of our enquiries, is, in every respect, so reasonable, that it suffices to make the slightest examination into the natural powers of the human mind and to compare them with their objects, in order to recommend it to us. We shall then find what are the proper subjects of science and enquiry.

    “...” 全部笔记(1) 去书内

    Hume's comprehensive analysis of human cognitive activity points out that human cognitive capacity is limited. His analysis of philosophies including religion, atheism, and absolute skepticism leads to his philosophy of "moderate skepticism." As a moderate skeptic, Hume believed that a reasonable reasoner should retain a permanent degree of skepticism, caution, and humility in all his examinations and assertions. A moderate skepticism or collegiate philosophy can be both enduring and useful. Nor is the conclusion of philosophy anything other than a systematic and revised reflection on everyday life, and Hume points out that there are two aspects of the inherent subject of science and research that one can come to: a quantitative science, and the existence of actual and factual facts that are based entirely on experience.
