Publisher's Synopsis
The Field-Ingersoll Discussion: Faith Or Agnosticism? is a book that documents a debate between two prominent figures of the late 19th century, Henry Martyn Field and Robert G. Ingersoll. The debate took place in 1888 and was centered around the topic of faith and agnosticism. Field, a Presbyterian minister, argued for the importance of faith in one's life, while Ingersoll, a lawyer and orator, championed the idea of agnosticism and the rejection of religious dogma. The book presents the arguments made by both men, as well as the responses and counter-arguments they received from each other. The debate is presented in a clear and concise manner, making it accessible to readers of all backgrounds. The Field-Ingersoll Discussion: Faith Or Agnosticism? is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious thought and the ongoing debate between faith and reason.A Series Of Articles From The North American Review.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
