And even since the Reformation, when or where has existed a Protestant or dissenting Sect, who would tolerate, A FREE INQUIRY? The blackest Billingate, the most ungentlemanly insolenc, the most yahooish brutality, is patiently endured countenanced propagated and applauded: But touch a solemn Truth in collission with a dogma of a Sect, though capable of the clearest proof; and you will Soon find you have disturbed a Nest, and the hornets will swarm about your legs and hands and fly into your face and Eyes.

The USA PotatoOU Criticized for Suspending Trans TA After Student Claims Christian Persecution
Religious beliefs do not “entitle any student to a certain grade on an assignment,” the OU grad student union said.A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
Strange! that no one has ever been persecuted by the church for believing God bad, while hundreds of millions have been destroyed for thinking him good. The orthodox church never will forgive the Universalist for saying “God is love.” It has always been considered as one of the very highest evidences of true and undefiled religion to insist that all men, women and children deserve eternal damnation. It has always been heresy to say, “God will at last save all.”Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, agnostic, orator

A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
I thank Luther for protesting against the abuses of the church, and I denounce him because he was the enemy of liberty. I thank Calvin for writing a book in favor of religious freedom, and I abhor him because he burned Servetus. I thank Knox for resisting Episcopal persecution, and I hate him because he persecuted in his turn. I thank the Puritans for saying “Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God,” and yet I am compelled to say that they were tyrants themselves.Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, agnostic, orator
Lecture (1877-06-23), “The Ghosts,” Carson Theater, Carson City, Nevada
