What are some arguments with/against Hume's argument of causality?
Post Body
David Hume argues that causes and effects cannot be known a priori and are solely deduced from experience.
He considers causation to be essential for understanding the world.
He also advocates the conceivability (what we can imagine is logical, and what we can't imagine is not) argument to prove his points.
I am required to either offer a criticism for Hume’s argument or defend his position against a possible problem.
I really need help on this subject as I'm finding it difficult to fully grasp, let alone form an argument with/against Hume. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!
