Colloquium: The Great Agnostic

For our August colloquium, we are excited to present the words of The Great American Agnostic, Robert Ingersoll, performed by actor Sean O'Brien.

Ingersol was a writer, orator, and lawyer during the Golden Age of Free Thought and campaigned in defense of agnosticism.

O’Brien has appeared on stage with the Davis Shakespeare Company and Sacramento Shakespeare Festival. He also plays guitar, sings and plays penny whistle as a busker in Old Sacramento, and sings second tenor with the Sacramento Gay Men’s Chorus.
