This paper proposes a fuzzy evidential model for commonsense causal reasoning.
After an analysis of the advantages and limitations of existing accounts of causality,
a generalized rule-based model FEL ({\it Fuzzy Evidential Logic}) is proposed
that takes into account the inexactness and the cumulative evidentiality of commonsense 
reasoning.  It corresponds naturally to a neural (connectionist) network.
Detailed analyses are performed regarding how the model handles commonsense causal 
reasoning.
