Ingersoll, Beecher, And Dogma

Ingersoll, Beecher, and Dogma: Or A Few Simple Truths and Their Logical Deductions is a book written by Richmond Sheffield Dement and published in 1878. The book is a critique of the religious beliefs of Robert Ingersoll and Henry Ward Beecher, two prominent figures in the late 19th century who were known for their skepticism towards traditional Christian dogma. Dement argues that Ingersoll and Beecher's rejection of certain religious doctrines is based on a flawed understanding of the Bible and a lack of logical consistency in their arguments. He presents a series of logical deductions from basic Christian principles, such as the existence of God and the divinity of Christ, to refute their claims and defend traditional Christian beliefs. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to a general audience. It is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Ingersoll and Beecher's arguments. Dement also includes quotes from both men to illustrate their views and provide context for his criticisms. Overall, Ingersoll, Beecher, and Dogma is a thoughtful and well-reasoned critique of two influential thinkers in the late 19th century. It offers a defense of traditional Christian beliefs and provides a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about the role of religion in modern society.In Which The Positions Of Mr. Ingersoll And Mr. Beecher Are Considered In Two Lectures, Entitled Mephisto-Minotaurus And The Absolute Necessities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
