Myth and Miracle

Myth and Miracle is a book written by Robert G. Ingersoll, a renowned American lawyer, orator, and freethinker. In this book, Ingersoll examines the role of religion in human history, and argues that many of the religious beliefs and practices that have been held sacred for centuries are based on myths and superstitions rather than on factual evidence. He also explores the concept of miracles, and challenges the idea that they are supernatural occurrences that defy the laws of nature. Instead, he suggests that many so-called miracles can be explained by natural phenomena or human deception. Throughout the book, Ingersoll uses his sharp wit and incisive reasoning to critique religious dogma and promote a more rational, scientific approach to understanding the world. Myth and Miracle is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to question their assumptions about religion and the supernatural.THIS 70 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Works of Robert G.
