David Hume's Argument From Design

The argument from design is an analogy and works by comparing the universe to an object. An example of the comparison would be to say the world resembles a car. All cars have creators, therefore, the world has to have a creator, and that must be God. The argument concludes by saying by observing the world we can gather evidence that the intelligence of a human that creates a car, bike or some other item resembles, in a less perfect form, God. However, Hume thinks this argument fails. Hume does not think we can compare the creation of the universe to a creation of a car or the creator of the universe to the creator of a car. Hume continues to reject this claim by pointing out that the existence of natural evil and moral evil in the world make it very unlikely that God exists. Hume does not think that with all the natural disasters, threats, attacks, homicides etc. that there can be such a perfect being like God. If God is willing and able to prevent evil than why is there so much evil? Hume thinks there is so much evil because there isn’t a God.
but does some of his own opinions as well. One of Dawkins views is that when it comes to religion people usually believe what their parents do: what they grew up believing. Many individuals do not look for evidence or justification in their religion, but believe in something because that is all they know. Another one of Dawkins’ views on religion differs from Humes in that Dawkins states that believing in God requires more clarification. Dawkins questions why the existence of the universe has to have a creator, but God does not. He wonders why is the existence of God is a brute fact while other things need clarification on how they came about. Therefore, Dawkins does not think that the world had to have a creator, like the car did, so he also rejects the argument from design, and states that it
