5. Hume argues further that, if a house and universe are similar, just as we'd blame the builder for a faulty house can we blame a faulty designer.. why does Paley disagree?
- the issue was whether the universe showed design and not quality concerning the design
- this argument would be inconsistent with his rejection of analogy
- a builder cannot be forever responsible for problems as time creates problems, the world began perfect
- Paley did not dispute this argument, Flew did
