David Humes Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion is a philosophical classic that displays a powerful mastery of the critical thinking skills of reasoning and evaluation. Humes subject, the question of the existence and possible nature of God, was, and still is, a persistent topic of philosophical and theological debate. What makes Humes text a classic of reasoning, though, is less what he says, than how he says it. As he noted in his preface to the book, the question of natural religion was unanswerable: so obscure and uncertain that human reason can reach no fixed determination with regard to it. Hume chose, as a result, to cast his thoughts on the topic in the form of a dialogue allowing different points of view to be reasoned out, evaluated and answered by different characters. Considering and judging different or opposing points of view, as Humes characters do, is an important part of reasoning, and is vital to building strong persuasive arguments. Even if, as Hume suggests, there can be no final answer to what a god might be like, Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion shows high-level reasoning and evaluation at their best.
