We cannot point out that circumstance in the cause, which gives it a connexion with its effect.
We have no idea of this connexion; nor even any distinct notion what it is we desire to know, when we endeavour at a conception of it.

AN EDUCATED PERSON MUST ENSURE THAT THEIR BELIEF IS PROPORTIONAL TO THEIR

DAVID HUME
