Hume simply don't believe in miracles. he think that miracle is due to laws of nature and simply is experience and it can't never be proved!
He said that, "It is experience only, which gives authority to human testimony: and it is the same experience, which assures us of the laws of nature.........no human testimony can have such force as to prove a miracle, and make it a just foundation for any such system of religion."

I disagree with hume and what he says about miracles. I think that in order for you to believe you have to hear the resons that the person is giving you. For example is everyone in town is talkin about the same thing and noone is contradicting them, wouldnt you believe it????
For me, i don't believe in miracle until i actually see one myself, i don't know, i just that kind of person who don't believe it when i actually see it. I don't care how realiable the person whose telling me is. So i guess i'm agreeing with Hume, till i actually witness it myself.
i agree with you ally. because if you think about it. if someone makes up a miracle and then pays others to keep their mouths shut and not contradict and support it then. its not a miracle but a lie
u could think of it that way, my point was just that i'm the person who don't believe anything until i see it with my own eyes, and so far i hear about people talking about their grandparent who are suppose to die, but it's a miracle that they didn't, u can definitely argue that it's just a meant to be that they are not meant to die yet, i don't believe that's it's actually a miracle.
