A character created by this philosopher describes nature as a “great machine” and analogizes it to a house in two presentations of the argument from design. This philosopher argued that there will always be more evidence for the laws of nature than for individual miracles. Contra Spinoza, this philosopher wrote, “reason is, and ought only to be, the slave of the passions.” According to this philosopher’s “guillotine,” moral “ought” statements cannot be derived from factual “is” statements. This philosopher’s Enquiry confusingly argues that someone can imagine a “missing shade of blue.” For 10 points, name this empiricist philosopher of the Scottish Enlightenment. ■END■
