Robert Ingersoll

    Robert G. Ingersoll was de voornaamste voorvechter van vrijdenken in de 19e eeuw. Zijn meeslepende lezingen van drie uur, vaak gericht tegen religie en bijgeloof, trokken immense menigten over het hele continent aan. Hij was een onverschrokken kampioen van de rede en menselijke liefde, die bijgeloof en hiërarchische godheden uitdaagde. Ingersoll bepleitte hartstochtelijk gelijke rechten en stond bekend om zijn absolute eerlijkheid en onwrikbare moed bij het verdedigen van zijn overtuigingen.
