ontological, challenges to inductive arguments

for challenges to inductive arguments, do you mean hume's arguments against the cosmological/teleological, mackie's arguments against cosmological and the scientific challenges and stuff?

yep!! but im not sure because cosmological came up in 2021 and teleological came up 2020 and 2018. Don't the B questions include challenges normally because its an argument? so idk whether to include that as a possibility

tbh they could easily bring up challenges in part a, (like for my islam paper, for part a they asked for the islamic views on scientific origins of the universe hence we had to mention stuff like big bang etc) and then for part b it was asking about science and islams 'compatability') so Id say that they could ask for the 'challenges of the cosmological/teleological argument with reference to hume' and then maybe for the part b say something like 'inductive arguments are successful in proving the existence of god'? or maybe the stem of part b could say that science is effective in disproving inductive arguments? or say that ontological arguments are more effective than telelogical/cosmological ones?
