Publisher's Summary

Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion (1779) by the Scottish philosopher David Hume examines whether one can rationally come to any conclusions about God's nature. Three philosophers, Demea, Philo, and Cleanthes, debate this question in a series of dialogues. While all three agree that a god exists, they hold different views on God's nature. Demea, who argues for orthodoxy, insists that one cannot come to know the nature of God through reason. Philo, the skeptic, agrees with Demea that God is incomprehensible and offers convincing arguments for this position. Opposing them, Cleanthes the empirical theist argues that one can come to know about God by reasoning from the evidence in nature. Some of Hume’s themes and arguments are inspired by Cicero's De Natura Deorum.

Performance was ok for a book, but it's a dialog

I know that it is not easy to do, but a different voice per character would have been nice. It was a bit though to follow who's talking sometimes.
