About the Book

Agnostic American orator Robert G. Ingersoll wrote "The Works of Robert G. Ingersoll, Vol. 9," which is a collection of his speeches and writings on a range of subjects, including politics, science, literature, and religion. Ingersoll promotes agnosticism and displays his doubt about religion throughout the whole book. He contends that religion is founded on blind faith rather than reason or proof, which has resulted in a number of issues in the world. Ingersoll supports the notion of a secular society and thinks that social decisions should be made based on reason and science rather than on religious convictions. Ingersoll discusses modern social and political topics such women's rights, the function of government, and the death sentence in addition to his criticisms of religion. He favors freedom of speech and thinking and supports personal freedom as long as it doesn't hurt other people. Eloquence, levity, and reason are all characteristics of Ingersoll's writing, and his speeches and papers were well-regarded in his day and are still well-read by readers and academics today.

About Author

Robert G. Ingersoll

Known as "the Great Agnostic," Robert G. Ingersoll was an American lawyer, author, and orator who advocated for agnosticism during the Golden Age of Free Thought. He lived from August 11, 1833, to July 21, 1899. In Dresden, New York, Robert Ingersoll was born. His father, John Ingersoll, was a radical Congregationalist preacher who supported abolition and regularly moved his family as a result of his views. While American revivalist Charles G. Finney was on a tour of Europe, Rev. John Ingersoll temporarily filled in as the preacher. After Finney's return, Rev. Ingersoll stayed as Finney's co-pastor and associate pastor. In 1853, "Bob" Ingersoll spent a time teaching in Metropolis, Illinois, where he delegated the "larger part of the instruction, while Latin and history absorbed his own attention" to one of his pupils, the future judge Angus M. L. McBane. Ingersoll had already worked as a teacher in Mount Vernon, Illinois, at some point before taking the position in Metropolis. On February 13, 1862, Ingersoll wed Eva Amelia Parker (1841–1923). Their two daughters were well-known feminists and suffragists, Eva Ingersoll-Brown, was the elder daughter.
