As Protestants and Catholics dismissed miracles, no matter how well attested, that violated their theological constraints,[146] skeptics about miracles altogether, like Voltaire and Hume, felt no compulsion to recognize the evidence for any of them.[147] Conyers Middleton, for example, in his famous anti-Catholic work, dismissed all postbiblical evidence for miracles, rejecting the accuracy of the church fathers as well as more recent eyewitness testimonies. He prudently avoided discussion of nt miracles.[148]
