About “Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion”

Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion is a philosophical work by David Hume, published in 1779. It presents a discussion among three characters—Demea, Philo, and Cleanthes—who debate the existence and nature of God. All three characters agree that a god exists, but they disagree on the attributes of this god and the possibility of human knowledge about a deity. The identities of the names used in the work are unclear, and scholars have debated whether they reference historical philosophers. The text explores questions about religion and reason through philosophical dialogue. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
