Faith and/or Reason
and Possibility of Miracles
An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding (LaSalle, III.: Open Court, 1966 [first published 1748]), p. 145.
[U]pon the whole, we may conclude that the Christian Religion not only
was at first attended with miracles, but even at this day cannot be
believed by any reasonable person without one.... Whoever is moved by
Faith to assent to it, is conscious of a continued miracle in his own
person, which subverts all the principles of his understanding, and
gives him a determination to believe what is most contrary to custom
and experience.
