Somewhat difficult to read. Produced by David Widger "Ingersoll in Canada: A Reply to Wendling, Archbishop Lynch, Bystander; and…" by Allen Pringle" is a critical response and counter-argumentation piece written in the late 19th century. The work addresses the reaction of religious leaders and the public to the lectures given by American freethinker Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll during his visit to Canada. Pringle’s text aims to promote Freethought and critiques various religious assertions, engaging with the arguments presented by significant church figures and contemporaries who opposed Ingersoll’s views. "The opening of "Ingersoll in Canada" sets the stage for a vigorous debate surrounding the theological views presented in the lectures by Ingersoll. Pringle notes the tension that arose following these lectures, which ignited responses from figures like Mr. Wendling and Archbishop Lynch. Through a preface meant for clergy and college students, the author emphasizes the need for open inquiry into theological questions as a reaction against what he perceives as an oppressive status quo. Pringle outlines the importance of examining faith critically and articulately chronicles early responses to Ingersoll's views as evidence of a broader societal shift towards skepticism and rationalism in the face of dogmatic beliefs."
