David Hume challenges the metaphysical claim to base reality on the will of a Supreme Being. This book looks at David Hume's empiricism to understand how he refutes the Theory of Volition. While his contemporaries looked to the "Divine Will" to explain the connection between cause and effect, David Hume redirected his gaze to human nature.He analyzes Impressions (our sensible perceptions) and realizes that Impressions form the basis - and the limit - of all possible knowledge.Regarding the enigma of Experience, he concluded that the repetition of events does not occur because of a connection, but because of a conjugation (he realized that events are not connected, but conjugated). Instead of a connection, there is actually a conjugation.Finally, he makes his Refutation of Volition and uses the argument that we have no impression of a deity acting on matter, making the theological hypothesis an extrapolation with no empirical basis.
