What does "this" refer to?
David Hume, in Section X of his Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, argued that a rational person should never believe a report that a miracle had actually taken place unless it would be a greater miracle that the person reporting the miracle was mistaken. This, he argued, is highly unlikely ever to be so. We should, as a policy, always believe whatever would be the lesser miracle.
