ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899)
THE GREATEST AMERICAN YOU’VE NEVER HEARD OF.
The most influential intellectual in American history; a tireless activist, Ingersoll supported equal rights for minorities, called for women to be given the vote, supplied the inspiration for the birth control pill, prevailed over the nation’s blasphemy laws and was the father of
America’s Golden Age of Freethought.

He was also the most intrepid adversary religion ever faced,
earning him the nickname: “The Great Satan!”

“The future historian will rank Robert G. Ingersoll peerless among the great…”
Elizabeth Cady Stanton

“The name Robert Ingersoll is in the pantheon of the world.”
Eugene Debs

“I have but known two truly great men; Abraham Lincoln and Robert Ingersoll.”
Frederick Douglass.
