The speeches and writings of American atheist orator Robert G. Ingersoll from the 19th century are collected in the book "The Works of Robert G. Ingersoll, Vol. 6". Politics, science, literature, and religion are just a few of the many subjects covered in the book. Ingersoll displays his mistrust of religion and promotes agnosticism throughout the whole book. He contends that religion, which he holds responsible for a number of global problems, is founded on irrational faith rather than on reason or solid facts. Ingersoll is in favour of a culture in which reason and science, rather than religious dogma, serve as the guiding principles. Along with criticising religion, Ingersoll also discusses a range of contemporary social and political concerns, such as women's rights, the role of the government, and the abolition of slavery. He believes that individuals should be free to live as they like as long as they do not damage other people, and he supports both individual freedom and freedom of thought and speech. Because of his eloquence, humour, and sense of reason, Ingersoll's lectures and articles were well-known throughout his lifetime. Readers and academics still read, discuss, and study them today because they are still relevant.

Autorenporträt
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.
