Hume weakened analogical arguments for God.

RE: Hume weakened analogical arguments for God.
Hume seems to be implying strongly that theological debate rests on weak, imprecise analogy which even if we go along with the analogies we can just as easily match the theist case with an equal case for explicit atheist and implicit atheist views.
It is very important not to mistake hemlock for parsley, but to believe or not believe in God is not important at all. - Denis Diderot

We are the United States of Amnesia, we learn nothing because we remember nothing. - Gore Vidal
