For those wishing to know: In 1871 Norwich Cathedral invited the Bishop of
Peterborough and give some talks on scepticism and faith. At the same
time the well-known sceptic, Charles Bradlaugh ended up giving three
lectures in reply. This booklet is the result. For the first two talks
the Bishop sought to portray sceptics as demanding the impossible, in the
last he stated Christianity to be the true religion etc. Bradlaugh's
lectures are responsible replies, although the best bit was went he was
interrupted by a religious person, and his lecture went shifted in great
oratory and powerful arguments. I'd put them down as a draw. Done for
Darwin Day, 12 February.
All the best,
