| Summary: | This article is an outline of David Hume’s philosophy of religion. His critical stanceon the rationality of the religious beliefs consists of two issues. First, a problem ofthe arguments for the existence of God (the cosmological argument and the argumentfrom the design) will be discussed e.i. can we infer a cause from an effect?Second, I will try to answer the question whether the religion is natural (universal andoriginal): there will be discussed the origins of religion and the issue of religion asan artificial morality. Last there will be presented some argument for the rationalityof religion on the basis of David Hume’s philosophy of religion.
