Publisher's Synopsis
""Mistakes of Ingersoll"" is a book written by James Baird McClure and published in 1879. The book is a response to the lectures and writings of Robert G. Ingersoll, a prominent American lawyer, orator, and agnostic who was known for his criticism of religion and advocacy for secularism. McClure, a Presbyterian minister, challenges Ingersoll's arguments and critiques his views on Christianity, morality, and the existence of God. The book is divided into chapters that address different aspects of Ingersoll's philosophy, including his rejection of miracles, his criticism of the Bible, and his belief in the power of reason. McClure argues that Ingersoll's skepticism is misguided and that faith in God is essential for a moral and fulfilling life. ""Mistakes of Ingersoll"" is a significant work in the history of American religious thought and provides insight into the debates surrounding religion and secularism in the late 19th century.As Shown By Professor Swing, J.
