Publisher description
Excerpt from The Whole Works of the Right Honourable Duncan Forbes, Vol. 2 of 2 But it is chiefly grounded on a firm persuasion, that human understanding is a sufficient guide to man, and the test and measure of all matters of belief; so that we are at liberty, nay indeed bound, to reject whatever does not answer those notions, which, by what we call reasoning, we have fixed. That modern discoveries, the fruit of genius and application only, have fixed and determined to a certainty the laws and causes of the principal operations, and phnomena of Nature, which were wholly unknown to the antients, and mistaken by the authors of the books which are received as Revelation. That therefore these books, so far as they give accounts of Nature, contrary to experience, and demonstration resulting from it, are false; and consequently can, in no other point, pass for infallible.
