A) “One of a kind”.
B) “Generous nature”.
C) “Provable books”.
D) “Spiritual words”.

3. “To leave the argument without proofs, is to leave it without effect; for the persuasion produced by this species of evidence depends upon a view and induction of the particulars which compose it” (Paley, PDF 149; PP 132). This quote captures part of the strength of Paley's argument. With this in mind, how are the arguments of Paley different than that of Hume and Spinoza?
