Throughout humes life he was occupied with notion

Reference no: EM13523191

It seems as though throughout Hume's life he was occupied with the notion of if the external world truly does exist. He spent much time debating with himself over this topic and ultimately realized that for his sake, ignorance to this dilemma would suffice. He concludes that we do not know very much about the world because we only take what we perceive from it. Do you agree with Hume that at some point it is better for your mental state to just accept that we do not know that much? Are there things in this world that we are positive that exist and are not just impressions on our mind?
