Send us a Text Message.This podcast episode deals with an address given by Robert G. Ingersoll - one of the individuals who spoke at Whitman's funeral.He was the poet of Love. He was not ashamed of that divine passion that has built every home; that divine passion that has painted every picture and given us every real work of art; that divine passion that has made the world worth living in and has given some value to human life.This episode begins with a promo description for the new podcast Celebrate Whitman (to begin July 4, 2024.)
Children: “I love America more than any other country in this world; and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.” These words from James Baldwin may capture the essence of being a responsible American. Adlai Stevenson added to this essence when he said, “When an American says that he loves his country, he means not only that he loves the New England hills, the prairies glistening in the sun, the wide and rising plains, the great mountains, and the sea. He means that he loves an inner air, an inner light in which freedom lives and in which a man can draw the breath of self-respect.” “How often we fail to realize our good fortune in living in a country where happiness is more than a lack of tragedy.” As President Clinton observed, “There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America.” “What we need are critical lovers of America - patriots who express their faith in their country by working to improve it.” We can start this work by focusing on the wisdom of Walter Lippmann, “We are quite rich enough to defend ourselves, whatever the cost. We must now learn that we are quite rich enough to educate ourselves as we need to be educated;” and that education must include all of our children, as they need to be educated. Only educating most of our children is not nearly good enough, especially if you are the child who is still being left behind. Angels: “If a man is not rising upwards to be an angel, depend upon it, he is sinking downwards to be a devil.” What do you think about this pronouncement from Samuel Taylor Coleridge? If you are skeptical about this angel thing, consider what George Elliot said, “The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone.” OK, you may still see nothing but sand and are too busy to rise upwards to be an angel. Besides, you've never seen an angel and doubt if anyone else has either. Well, it's just like James Russell Lowell said, “All God's angels come to us disguised.” Voltaire added, “It is not known precisely where angels dwell - whether in the air, the void, or the planets. It has not been God's pleasure that we should be informed of their abode.” Nonetheless, “Angels descending, bring from above, echoes of mercy, whispers of love.” It's like Jean Paul Richter told us, “The guardian angels of life fly so high as to be beyond our sight, but they are always looking down upon us.” “O welcome, pure-eyed Faith, white-handed Hope, Thou hovering angel, girt with golden wings!” Anger: There is a French Proverb that says, “Anger is a bad counselor.” Although anger compels you to action, it's like Benjamin Franklin warned, “Anger and folly walk cheek by jowl.” Will Rogers put it this way, “People who fly into a rage always make a bad landing;” and Robert G. Ingersoll like this, “Anger blows out the lamp of the mind.” Should a Korean Proverb be more your style, try this one, “If you kick a stone in anger, you'll hurt your own foot.” Wherever in the world you seek your wisdom, indulging in anger is a major no-no. Even Horace gave it a thumbs-down, “Anger is short-lived madness.” Ambrose Bierce said, “Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.” OK, go ahead and lose your temper if you must; but at least take a quick count to 10 as you “consider how much more you often suffer from your anger and grief, than from those very things for which you are angry and grieved.”
We announce a new lawsuit attempting to stop public money from repairing churches in New Jersey. We celebrate the birthdate of the "Great Agnostic" orator and author Robert G. Ingersoll by hearing his "Love" recitation set to music. Then we speak with University of Aberdeen professor Isabella Kasselstrand about her new book Beyond Doubt: The Secularization of Society.

The complete audiobook is available for purchase at Audible.com: voicesoftoday.net/jeh The Life and Exploits of Jehovah By Henry M. Tichenor Narrated by Oberon Michaels Henry Tichenor (1858 - 1922) was a writer and free thinker who wrote extensively on religious and social issues. In his hostile attitude to organized religion, he ranks with such prominent figures as Robert G. Ingersoll, Clarence Darrow, and more recent critics like Christopher Hitchens and Dan Barker. In The Life and Exploits of Jehovah, first published in 1915, Tichenor presents, in lively and mocking prose, the troubling history of the temperamental deity of the ancient Israelites, from the mists of antiquity to the Reformation. In the final chapter, he provides a catalogue of abuses perpetrated by fanatical believers, and asserts that the recognition of human rights has advanced as religious practice has become less doctrinaire.
Today's meditation comes from The Book Of First Corinthians in The New Testament and from the writings of Robert G. Ingersoll, with music by Stephen Keech.

Porque cuanto más te esfuerces en ser o parecer humilde, más escapará de ti esa calidad. En otras palabras, si crees que ya eres humilde, ¡todavía te falta mucho!En casa, cuando alguien tiene algún logro importante, y vuelve a casa orgulloso y feliz, bromeamos: “Entre todas tus cualidades, tienes otra virtud muy importante... ¡la humildad!” Por supuesto tampoco que no es en serio, y está mal felicitarnos en familia por lo logrado a través del esfuerzo y gracias a Dios. Pero lo cierto es que cuanto más pensamos en nosotros mismos, o intentamos “ser” humildes, más lejos estaremos de esa virtud.¿Sabes de dónde proviene la palabra "humildad”? De un término en latín, humilitas, que significa "pegado a la tierra". Las personas orgullosas parece que andan en las alturas”, y por eso la humildad se asocia con tener los pies sobre la tierra. Ser humilde implica reconocer nuestra dependencia de Dios, y valorar a los demás por encima de nosotros mismos. Significa ayudar a otros sin esperar reconocimiento o recompensa. Significa respetar a otros y sus diferentes formas de pensar. Significa no creer que sabemos más que nadie, o que tenemos todas las respuestas.Quizá lo más importante que debes saber acerca de la humildad es cuánto la valora Dios. El Señor nos dice que el valora un corazón humilde, que reconoce su necesidad, pues así puede trabajar y hacerlo receptivo a su mensaje.¿Sabes quiénes pueden tener más dificultades con la humildad? Los lideres. Robert G. Ingersoll, orador del siglo XIX, lo expresó con estas palabras: “Si quieres saber cómo es realmente alguien, dale poder”. En la Biblia, Moisés es un ejemplo de una persona mansa y humilde de corazón que, luego de ser transformado en el desierto de Madián a través de cuarenta años de estar con Dios, llegó a ser el líder que Jehová necesitaba para libertar al pueblo de Israel.No es sencillo ser humilde. Durante este mes veremos más ampliamente qué significa la humildad y la mansedumbre. Aprenderemos cada día cómo ser más como Jesús, quien era manso y humilde de corazón. Pero, lo más importante que quiero que tengas presente al iniciar este aprendizaje, es que Dios puede ayudarte. Y, como dice nuestro versículo de hoy, será Dios quien, algún día ¡se encargará de exaltarte para su gloria! cintia

We are going to be talking about your latest book today, which is Our Kind of People, which is a historical fiction related to the Gilded Age and the transition of the generations from the old money and the rather staid old New York to the new money. Tell us a bit about Our Kind of People. Carol Wallace: First of all,
The conservatives complain about godlessness, reactionaries think god punishes America for its godlessness, progressives think that America is too religious. But, wherever one might be on the spectrum, they each are unhappy about how religion manifests itself in America. Today, we have Justin Clark from Red Reviews Podcast here to talk about the history of Atheism, secularism and other types of godlessness in America. He also talks about the cult of Reason and all the other problems associated with the Godless. 5:46 - Who is Robert Ingersoll?10:04 - Eugene Debs relationship with Robert Ingersoll 12:40 - How Robert Ingersoll Helped Eugene Debs in the Pullman Strike13:00 - Robert Ingersoll’s Politics20:00 - Justin’s Critique of the Secular Movement23:31 - Atheism’s Golden Age from 2004-2016 26:00 - Why Esha thinks New Atheism always represented racism28:00 - Sam Harris’s Golden Girls’ Trust FundStatistician William Briggs Explains the Fraud of Sam Harris’ PHD30:00 - The Good and Bad of Christopher Hitchens The trial of Henry Kissinger35:00 - Justin on Why he left the Cult of Reason40:42 - Biological Determinism and its connection to Cult of Reason42:00 - The Bell Curve as an Example of Biological Determinism47:00 - Bell Curve and its affect on Policy during the Clinton Years48:00 - The Cult of Stefan Molyneux 51:52 - Beware of Scientism 53:00 - Skeptical Inquirer Pedaling Overpopulation Myths 59:00 - Skeptics not so skeptical of National Security Narratives1:07:00 - Verifying Historical Narratives using Primary Sources1:17:00 - Changing Narratives and Peppery Dishes by Trotsky1:19:00 - Lew Wallace, the author of Ben Hur and his fiction about Robert Ingersoll1:28:00 - Seven Years in Tibet and the convenient lie1:35:00 - Justin’s next project regarding Eugene Debs and the Soviet UnionFollow Justin on Instagram and Tiktok Get full access to Historic.ly at historicly.substack.com/subscribe
When you read this last column for the month of May, many thoughts come to mind about Memorial Day. As we reflect on the many Memorial days of the past, we experience many warm thoughts on peace and about our land of freedom. In this week's column, I will share a poem sent to me by a lady in her 80s. She is a very special friend who has been a real inspiration to me, especially during the last several weeks. She is a distinguished member of the International Society of Poetry, and her poetry will be featured in the "Best Poems of the 90s," a publication of the National Library of Poetry. And most recently, she was inducted into the Eastern Kentucky University's Hall of Distinguished Alumni. Our Lady of Freedom. Have you ever been way out to sea? If you haven't, then you'll envy me. When I heard someone say, "There she stands, holding the freedom of the seas in her hands." I imagined that I was a soldier coming home. Long ago, I'd been sent over there to roam. Through country sides, so strange to me, I saw sights I hope I never see. Little children, their eyes so big and round, running to hide when they heard a loud sound. I thought of my children I hadn't seen for years. It was impossible for me to hold back the tears. The war was over. We were on our way. We would be landing early the next day. How would I feel when I first saw land? Would they be there to meet us with a band? Then I saw the lady, her light shining bright - to me, I never saw such a beautiful sight. Now I know why our soldiers kneel to pray - that the Statue of Liberty forever will stay. By Ruth T. George. Thoughts on Memorial Day: Those heroes are dead. They died for liberty. They died for us. They are at rest. They sleep in the land they made free, under the flag they rendered stainless. Under the solid pines, the sad hemlocks, the tearful willows, the embracing vines. They sleep beneath the shadow of the clouds. Careless lake of sunshine or storm, each in the windowless palace of rest. Earth may run red with other wars. They are at peace. In the midst of battles and the road of conflicts, they found the serenity of death. Robert G. Ingersoll.

This is a duet by Michele Fry, reading Ingersoll's essay, and Kay Williams, an authentic Scotsman, reading Burns' poetry. Robert Burns (25 January 1759 – 21 July 1796), also known familiarly as Rabbie Burns, the National Bard, Bard of Ayrshire, the Ploughman Poet and various other names and epithets, was a Scottish poet and lyricist. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland and is celebrated worldwide. He is the best known of the poets who have written in the Scots language, although much of his writing is in a "light Scots dialect" of English, accessible to an audience beyond Scotland. He also wrote in standard English, and in these writings his political or civil commentary is often at its bluntest.

The complete audiobook is available for purchase at Audible.com: https://rb.gy/efh3kj Lecture on Lincoln By Robert G. Ingersoll Narrated by Marty Krz Abraham Lincoln was probably the most iconic world leader of recent centuries and also one of the most researched. It is estimated that over 15,000 books have been written about him - significantly more than have been composed about more recent dominant figures of world history like Churchill and Hitler. For those who are not yet ready to tackle the massive biographical tomes about Lincoln, like that in six volumes composed by poet Carl Sandburg, this essay on the life and character of the 16th president by Robert Ingersoll will serve as an entertaining and informative introduction.
Masks, vaccinations and religion. After reporting FFRF legal complaints and victories, we celebrate the birthdate of 19th-century freethinker Robert G. Ingersoll by listening to his voice on an early 1890s Edison cylinder and hearing the song "The Time To Be Happy Is Now," which is based on Ingersoll's creed. Then we speak with former minister Candace Gorham, a licensed mental health counselor, about her new book Death, Dying, and Disbelief.

Ingersoll Narrated by Denis Daly This agressive diatribe against the Bible was published in 1894 and is based on an assertion that formed the basis of many of Ingersoll's attacks on organized religion - the concept of divine inspiration and the evils that spring from this contention. On the title page the author states: "In the nature of things there can be no evidence to establish the claim of Inspiration." Production copyright 2020 Voices of Today

Episode 8 Ft. Kyle Ferguson (Author of "The Christian Bubble") About the book "The Christian Bubble" Kyle Ferguson was living in a bubble...until he saw something that forced him to question everything he had believed. Kyle tells how he broke free from religious fear by studying some of the greatest minds who have ever lived ― and the Bible.

We recap FFRF’s impressive legal statistics for 2018 (1,060 formal complaint letters to erring government officials ending 315 state/church violations!). FFRF’s Robert G. Ingersoll Legal Fellow Colin McNamara briefly joins us to recap the ruckus his complaint over religious displays is creating in Camden, Mo. The rest of the program is devoted to a never-before-broadcast interview of the fascinating, freethinking, feminist and feisty Cecile Richards, formerly head of Planned Parenthood, before an audience of 1,000 freethinkers. Tune in to hear what it was like growing up in Texas as the daughter of Ann Richards, Cecile’s first state/church protest in sixth grade, how Jarred Kushner tried to “bribe” Planned Parenthood to stop providing abortions and why Cecile thinks patriarchy might be in its last gasp. P.S. As a bonus, we play a bit of “Sandan Shuffle,” by saxophonist Virginia Mayhew, granddaughter of Ansel Adams and daughter of longtime FFRF member Anne Helms.
We have a victory to report in Colorado and a victory to defend in Florida. After hearing 19th-century Robert G. Ingersoll's 1897 "Thanksgiving Sermon,” the 21st-century comedian Leighann Lord gives us "Six things to argue about at Thanksgiving other than politics." Then we talk with the first winner of FFRF's new "Avijit Roy Courage Award," Rasel Ahmed, co-editor of Bangladesh's first and only LGBTQ magazine who had to leave the country to seek asylum in the United States because of threats to his life.
“If a man is not rising upwards to be an angel, depend upon it, he is sinking downwards to be a devil.” What do you think about this pronouncement from Samuel Taylor Coleridge? If you are skeptical about this angel thing, consider what George Elliot said, “The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone.” OK, you may still see nothing but sand and are too busy to rise upwards to be an angel. Besides, you've never seen an angel and doubt if anyone else has either. Well, it's just like James Russell Lowell said, “All God's angels come to us disguised.” Voltaire added, “It is not known precisely where angels dwell - whether in the air, the void, or the planets. It has not been God's pleasure that we should be informed of their abode.” Nonetheless, “Angels descending, bring from above, echoes of mercy, whispers of love.” (Fanny J. Crosby) It's like Jean Paul Richter told us, “The guardian angels of life fly so high as to be beyond our sight, but they are always looking down upon us.” “O welcome, pure-eyed Faith, white-handed Hope, Thou hovering angel, girt with golden wings!” (John Milton, Comus) … . . . . . “The harsh, useful things of the world, from pulling teeth to digging potatoes, are best done by men who are as starkly sober as so many convicts in the death-house, but the lovely and useless things, the charming and exhilarating things, are best done by men with, as the phrase is, a few sheets in the wind.” H.L. Mencken certainly laid it out that drink is a good news – bad news opportunity. Sure, it depends; but there definitely are pros and cons. The famous Anon. said, “The first thing in the human personality that dissolves in alcohol is dignity;” but Robert Louis Stevenson said, “Wine is bottled poetry.” Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller said, “When the wine goes in, strange things come out;” but Frank Sinatra said, “I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.” Even Shakespeare weighed in on the thumbs down side, “O God, that men should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away their brains! that we should, with joy, pleasance, revel, and applause, transform ourselves into beasts;” but no less an authority than Dave Barry put in his two cents worth on the other side of the debate, “Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.” – Let's give Homer Simpson today's last word on the topic, “Beer is the cause and solution to all of life's problems. – Cheers! . . . . . There is a French Proverb that says, “Anger is a bad counselor.” Although anger compels you to action, it's like Benjamin Franklin warned, “Anger and folly walk cheek by jowl.” Will Rogers put it this way, “People who fly into a rage always make a bad landing;” and Robert G. Ingersoll like this, “Anger blows out the lamp of the mind.” Should a Korean Proverb be more your style, try this one, “If you kick a stone in anger, you'll hurt your own foot.” Wherever in the world you seek your wisdom, indulging in anger is a major no-no. Even Horace gave it a thumbs-down, “Anger is short-lived madness.” Ambrose Bierce said, “Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.” OK, go ahead and lose your temper if you must; but at least take a quick count to 10 as you “consider how much more you often suffer from your anger and grief, than from those very things for which you are angry and grieved.” (Marcus Antonius)
Peoria, Illinois, July 28th, 2017, continued From the 200 block of N Jefferson Ave between Hamilton Blvd and Fayette St, I zigzag my way south past Courtyard Square. According to Lewis Lehrman's Lincoln at Peoria: The Turning Point, 'Douglas and Lincoln probably stayed at Peoria House... at the corner of Adams and Hamilton Streets.' Peoria House was a popular place for visitors to stay until it was destroyed by fire in 1896. According to Peoria Historical Society, it was replaced in 1908 by the grand Hotel Mayer, which, in turn, would burn down in 1963, when a drunken guest's bedding caught fire and spread. The site is now occupied by a large Caterpillar office building. Ernest East, however, writes in his Abraham Lincoln Sees Peoria that Lincoln definitely was a regular guest here...
Peoria, Illinois, July 28th, 2017, continued ~ Dedicated to Shannon Harrod Reyes I leave the library and begin my afternoon's site searches at the Peoria County Courthouse. Abraham Lincoln visited this courthouse many times over the years, on some occasions in his capacity as a lawyer and other times in association with his political career. There's a statue of Lincoln here commemorating a particularly notable occasion: his delivery of a speech from the front portico of the old courthouse on October 16, 1854. This speech was composed and delivered in opposition to the Kansas-Nebraska Act, co-authored by Stephen A. Douglas. The Peoria Speech, as it's now known, was part of a series that took place during that legislative election season where Douglas and Lincoln addressed and rebutted each other's arguments, sometimes during the same event, sometimes separately. Their exchange would be revived four years later, notably in the series of seven formal debates of 1858. Douglas won that year's Senate election with 54% of the vote, but Lincoln distinguished himself so well in that campaign season that he won the larger prize two years later. He was elected President in 1860, handily defeating his closest rival Douglas with a 10%+ lead...
Peoria, Illinois, July 28th, 2017 I awake in a spotlessly clean, perfectly comfortable, aggressively unimaginative Motel 6 hotel room on the north end of Peoria, Illinois. I’ve noticed that Motel 6’s are much better than they used to be when I was a child and young adult, at least in terms of cleanliness and amenities. They were never glamorous, but they now have less character. For many years, for example, the beds sported these wonderfully colorful blankets printed with stylized images of famous cities and landscapes all over the United States. Now, the rooms and draperies are beige highlighted with rust-orange, furnished with the plainest of midcentury-style designs, angular objects only occasionally relieved by a sleek curve here and there. My term for this sort of accommodation is ‘people storage’: strictly utilitarian, uninspired, and uninspiring. Perhaps that’s a good thing for my purposes: I fled the room as soon as I could to place myself in a more interesting environment. Still, I’m irritated as I so often am with modern architecture and interior design. Why have we stopped bothering to go on artistic flights of fancy, then directing the inspirations found there towards making these things beautiful?...
Psychologist, author and songwriter Elliott Ingersoll, descendant of the family of the great 19-century agnostic orator Robert G. Ingersoll, tells us about his TED talk challenging the notion of “chemical imbalances” in the brain, which, he says, can be better treated with talk therapy than with drugs. After hearing his performance of his song “American Infidel,” we introduce a drawing for free downloads of the audiobook of Dan’s book GOD: The Most Unpleasant Character in All Fiction by listening to Richard Dawkins reading his Foreword. We also are treated to an in-studio reading from the book by Dan Barker and Buzz Kemper, who pays the role of “God.”

'¡Sí!', dije yo, '¿Cree usted que la gente que se ahogó creía en la providencia?'. Pensemos en el infinito egoísmo de tal doctrina. He aquí un hombre que se salva de subir a un barco de quinientos pasajeros y ellos se van al fondo del mar; padres, madres, niños, y amorosos esposos y esposas esperan en las costas. ¡He aquí un pobre diablo que no fue! Y él cree que Dios, el Ser Infinito, interfirió en su pobre y reseca vida a su favor, y dejó que todos los demás murieran. Esto es providencia. ¿Por qué la providencia permite todos los crímenes? ¿Por qué son protegidos los golpeadores de mujeres, y por qué las esposas y niños quedan indefensos, si la mano de Dios está sobre todos nosotros? ¿Quién protege a los locos? ¿Por qué la providencia permite la locura? Pero la iglesia no puede renunciar a la providencia. Si tal cosa no existe, no sirven las plegarias, ni la adoración, ni las iglesias, ni los sacerdotes". - Robert G.

The Yooper told the President he and several of his friends had declared war on the United States. The President replied, “You know I have a million men in my army, are you sure you want to declare war?” The Yooper replied, “Let me check, I’ll call you tomorrow.” Sure enough, the President gets a call. The Yooper says, “Mr. President, the war is still on. We picked up some trucks and the guys down at the watering hole have joined up, so we’ve expanded our army too.” “Well,” says the President, “since I talked to you yesterday, I’ve added another half-million men to my army. Are you sure you still want this war?” The Yooper thought for a second, “Let me call you back tomorrow.” Sure enough, about the same time the next day the President gets a call. “Mr. President, we added the ultra-light group from the airport and we can now bomb you from above. The war is still on.” The President replied, “You do know I have an Air Force too of modern jets and since I talked to you yesterday, I’ve added another half million to the army for a total of 2 million men. Are you sure you still want this war?” “Let me call you tomorrow,” says the Yooper. The next day the President gets a phone call. “Mr. President, the war is off. We talked it over and we decided we don’t have any way of feeding 2 million prisoners.” Events & Happenings:
Host: Chris Mooney Recently, it has come to light that many scientists—scientists who don't believe in God--nevertheless claim to be "spiritual but not religious." Some in the secular movement have responded favorably to this new trend-one unfolding against the backdrop of an increasingly secular America, and a millennial generation that is also discarding traditional religion while extolling spiritual meaning. Yet others are sharply opposed, calling secular "spirituality" little more than a semantic gambit, a misappropriation of misleading, faith-infused language. In this week's show, we present two different takes on whether we should embrace, or discard, the concept of godless spirituality. Our first guest, Adam Frank, is a nonbeliever with a deep respect for the domains of human spiritual endeavor who represents the pro-spirituality view. Frank is an assistant professor of astrophysics at the University of Rochester, where he studies the formation and evolution of stars. He's also a freelance writer for Discover and Astronomy magazines, a blogger at NPR's 13.7, and author of the book The Constant Fire: Beyond the Science vs. Religion Debate.

THIS WEEK - Rationalism and Atheism, Cynics and Skeptics ... and a Jesus Cap SI, thinking about conspiracy theories, brings up the topic of atheism being more about rational thinking than being "against" any particular god. He wonders why we're unable to get that message across to theists. The Herd challenges SI's notion. Can some people be atheists, dislike religion, and yet not necessarily use reason in other parts of their lives? Evo asks, how did atheism start for each of us - as a dismissal of god or as a rational process. We discuss the search for evidentiary enlightenment, regardless whether it's focused on science, politics, or philosophy, and the tendency towards an atheistic world view. What parts do cynicism and skepticism play in the process? (And is there a difference between cynics and skeptics?) Is your atheism part of "who you are"? Do you take any religious statement as an "in your face" attack that demands a response? Ex tells about a Christian who stole some artwork. Why do we think it was a Christian? You'll have to listen and find out! Poll results and a bow to Robert G. Ingersoll.
