To help us explore this topic, we\u2019ll take a look at the following questions:  How did David Hume influence the way in which history is recounted? Why would later philosophers see Hume as more reasonable than his French and German counterparts?&amp;nbsp; Why was post-Enlightenment Britain more open to organized religion than the continent?
