This was first pointed out by david hume the 18th-century scottish philosopher .

这个观点首先由18世纪苏格兰哲学家大卫休谟（davidhume）提出。

In this work , russell critically appreciates british empiricist thought , focusing on hume and berkeley .

在这项工作中，极为赞赏罗素英国经验主义思想，把重点放在休谟和伯克利。

In thus denying the competence of reason , hume placed himself almost entirely outside the main intellectual trend of the enlightenment .

在因此而对理性能力的否定中，休姆几乎完全将自己置于启蒙运动主要智力潮流之外。

Hume 's scepticism does not stop there , and human belief in causation is just a special case of a more general psychological trait : inductive reasoning .

休谟的怀疑主义不止于此，他认为人类相信因果关系只是一个更加普遍的心理品质的一个特例：归纳推理。

While hume was right that causes are never seen , only inferred , the blunt truth is that we can 't tell the difference .

休谟是对的，成因是看不见摸不着的，它只能通过推测感知到，但我们却不能分辨其中的区别。
