Much of David hume's work was dedicated to the philosophical absolvement of creation philosophies and "intelligent designer" ideals. One argument for the reason that people believe Hume to have been a Christian is that he wrote from a decidedly neutralistic point of view.

What are the different historians' interpretations about Hume and Hovell?
Historians and public sympathy shifted dramatically from the time when Hume and Hovell completed their journey, to later, towards the end of both men's lives. Initially, people believed Hovell's account of the journey. They believed that Hovell was the one who named the Hume River (later renamed the Murray, by Sturt); they believed that it was Hovell's idea to transform the bullock carts, using tarpaulins, into floating carts to cross the flooded rivers. The tendency to believe Hovell's account came from the fact that the New South Wales colony was still essentially British, and Hovell was an Englishman. Within a couple of decades, the public and the historians of the time were more inclined to believe Hume's account. They believed Hume had originally named the Hume River after his father, and they believed the novel idea of transforming carts into punts was all Hume's idea. The shift came because people were becoming more patriotic, finding a new identity in the young country of Australia, and they preferred to believe Hume who had been born in Australia.
