The sections which deal with the Argument from Design, and with which I am therefore concerned, are Parts I through VIII and Part XII. I argue that a clue to Hume‘s discussion of the Argument from Design is to be found in Section XII of the first Enquiry, in which Hume presents his most thorough analysis of philosophic dogmatism and scepticism. The Dialogues, as will be shown, follows precisely Hume‘s recommendations in this Section for bringing the dogmatist to the position which Hume himself endorses - ‘mitigated scepticism. ‘ It is, then, the position of the mitigated sceptic which is elaborated in Part XII of the Dialogues.
