An Attempt To Prove The Existence And Absolute Perfection Of The Supreme Unoriginated Being, In A Demonstrative Manner by Hugh Hamilton presents a mid-18th-century natural theology treatise arguing for the existence, unity, and absolute perfection of a single unoriginated God. The work outlines two broad modes of reasoning: a posteriori arguments from observed phenomena to a first cause, and a priori arguments from the notion of an eternal being to its existence. It engages with sceptical challenges from philosophers such as Hume and Spinoza, surveys contributions from Locke, Clarke, Fiddes, and Wollaston, and defends the truth of natural and revealed religion. The central claim is that there exists at least one unoriginated being whose non-existence is impossible, possessing infinite, necessary attributes (omnipotence, omnipresence, immutability, knowledge) and governed by moral perfections (benevolence, justice, truth). The treatise blends scriptural grounding with rational demonstration to establish a foundation for religion and morality.
