A Reply To Archdeacon Farrar

By Robert G. Ingersoll

Book Overview

""A Reply to Archdeacon Farrar"" is a book written by the American orator and freethinker, Robert G. Ingersoll. In this book, Ingersoll responds to a sermon given by Archdeacon Farrar, a prominent Anglican clergyman, in which he criticized Ingersoll's views on religion and morality. Ingersoll refutes Farrar's arguments and defends his own beliefs, which are based on reason and humanism rather than traditional religious dogma. He argues that morality is not dependent on belief in a supernatural deity, and that religion has often been a source of intolerance and oppression throughout history. Ingersoll's writing is characterized by his wit, eloquence, and skepticism, and this book is a powerful defense of secularism and rationalism in the face of religious orthodoxy. Overall, ""A Reply to Archdeacon Farrar"" is a thought-provoking and insightful work that challenges traditional beliefs and encourages readers to think critically about their own ideas and values.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Works of Robert G.
