The exploration of human knowledge development is central to philosophical discourse, particularly in understanding the concept of science. David Hume's philosophy offers a significant perspective on human nature, emphasizing the role of "habit" as a key factor in shaping knowledge and morality. He argues that habit, formed through repeated experiences, influences our reasoning and expectations more than reason itself. This work seeks to illustrate how Hume's insights connect knowledge and morality, highlighting habit's foundational role in guiding human life and causal understanding.
