According to Hume's remarks at the opening of An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, which of the following best communicates the central aims of his examination of the operations of the human understanding?
a. To show that the information the human understanding receives from the senses is non-deceiving and that natural philosophers can establish timelessly and universally true claims about natural objects and events by using empirical and experimental methods.
b. To show that the terminology used in Aristotle's Natural Philosophy is inconsistent with the most basic information that the human understanding receives from natural objects and that the ideas of natural objects that the human understanding does have available are consistent with the practice of the New Natural Philosophy of the 17th Century.
c. To show that the human understanding does not gain knowledge of existing things by using the abstract and logical reasoning that's used in logic and mathematics and that the understanding is incapable of answering the questions of rationalist metaphysics.
