The Sun Isn't Guaranteed To Rise Tomorrow. Here's Why.
An exploration of David Hume's "Problem of Induction"
The sun isn’t guaranteed to rise tomorrow. In fact, nothing is. I’ll explain why in this post.
Today, I’ll be exploring David Hume’s problem of induction. By the end of this post, I’ll have explained why there is just as much rational justification for the claim that “a giant bowl of spaghetti will rise tomorrow” as there is for “the sun will rise tomorrow”. Before I get into the problem of induction, I’ll provide some context on who David Hume is.
