I agree with Hume's critisism because they are not only valid but firm objections. He says that he can prove God's existance by using the design argument. But he does mention, "these arguments are open to a series of crippling objects", which are strong counteragruments. One being that, we are "justified" only when we have certain background information to prove it. So then how can we prove the world came into existance? By a perfect God, as Hume said. Or do we even have one?

I agree with Hume's criticisms because not only are they valid, they are firm objections. He states that he can prove God's existence by using the design argument. However, he does mention "these arguments are open to a series of crippling objects", which are persuasive and rational counterarguments. One being that we are justified only when we have certain background knowledge as proof. How can we be certain the world came into existence? By a perfect God, as Hume said- but do we even have one?
