摘要

摘要:大卫·休谟对因果关系和归纳法的攻击，以及他著名的“是-应该”二分法，对人类思想造成了沉重的打击，西方文明从未完全从中恢复过来。在休谟去世几个世纪后，他在学院派哲学家中仍然非常受欢迎，这只会支持他的怀疑论论点无法回答的神话。事实上，他的论点存在严重缺陷。本文第一部分梳理了休谟哲学的基本思想，重点论述了《论著与探究》中的认识论。第二部分揭示了休谟论证中的错误前提和假设，论证了客观主义如何救赎人类知识的有效性。

The Empiricist's New Clothes: David Hume and the Theft of Philosophy

ABSTRACT:David Hume's attacks on causality and induction along with his celebrated is-ought dichotomy dealt a blow to the human mind from which Western civilization has never fully recovered. Centuries after his death, Hume remains immensely popular among academic philosophers, which only bolsters the myth that his skeptical arguments are unanswerable. In fact, his arguments are seriously flawed. The first part of this paper clarifies the basics of Hume's philosophy, focusing on the epistemology in the Treatise and Enquiry. The second part exposes the mistaken premises and assumptions in Hume's arguments, demonstrating how Objectivism redeems the validity of human knowledge.
