Journal Title: Review Journal of Political Philosophy - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to explain the method of doubt which ultimately involves the task of removing all uncertain beliefs and to presents a series of reasons to show why we should be doubtful of the conclusions that we come to because of our reasoning, sense experience and our attitude towards it. Furthermore, I will also examine why Hume’s skepticism is neither refuted nor integrated in our natural belief? andwhy complete skepticism is impossible? Finally, I will argue that Hume’s philosophical position of skepticismencourage us, to be careful in examining all consequences when we reaches at conclusion. Furthermore,we have good reasons to be skeptical about conclusions reached by the use of reason as well sense experience.
