Science is a ratchet that helps you bring many non-obvious things up to the level of confidence of having an arm and fire beinghot. Hume's critique is all-or-nothing. If you want to open space between what you learn from science and what you learn from ordinary experience, Hume's not your philosopher.

One who rejoices when everything is made as simple as possible, but no simpler. Sayer of things that may be wrong, but not so bad that they're not even wrong.
