Merit what? I would certainly merit architects and poets they have actually contributed to society to culture in a global way. This man attempted to vindicate his own pessimism and morose attitude. Anyone who is born as genetically ugly and fat as him surely sured be thrown in the vault for good!
He contributed significantly by writing a history of England and by creating excellent theories concerning causation (at least in my opinion).
Unless you knew him personally I don't know how you can attribute to him a "pessimism and morose attitude" unless you're claiming that skepticism necessarily results in these.
well if we shouldnt listen to him because he is a racist then we shouldnt listen to aristotle or plato they treated slaves just like every other greek
@AXinthevoid : If it's elitism vs lowest common denominator then bring on elitism. Somebody has to hold the intellectual highground and keep back the ignorant hordes. Lady Gaga has 1 billion hits.

yeah, how exactly is Hume an elitist? He was a humanist and a brilliant philosopher, if you think he relished in his wealth, then yer nuts!

Whats wrong with being elitist? You're saying it is a crime to be smart? Dummy?
Him being an elitist or racist in no way discredits his validity or merit.
