I like David Hume and the early skeptics, who should i read after them

A good suggestion is Nietzsche.

Uh, I guess Kant from what I know or Schopenhauer both were responding to him in different ways

that sounds like a sentence that someone would write who spends too much time on 4chan and not enough time reading books
just read Neetchee and find out for yourself

Hume is the second greatest philosopher of all time. The first is Nietzsche.

> the dead end of western autonomous epistemology is "graduating philosophy"
You're right that he should become a monk, but you don't need Kiergekaard for it.

Read "The Contingency of Knowledge and Revelatory Theism" and pair it with the essence/energies distinction to allow for a real distinction between God and the Creation and you're good to go Ortho, which didn't get totally infected by autonomous epistemology through Aristotle like the West did

I get the feeling that this board likes Hume the best of all enlightenment philosophers because his philosophy cuts both ways rather than exclusively in one direction like Voltaire or Diderot.
