[Yardstick]

There was nothing noble about the Confederacy. Nothing.

Burn any heretics lately, O noble friend?

(Two can play at this game)

Oh, please.
“Burn any heretics lately, O noble friend?”

Is that what you bring to the table? Tell me you have something more than that!

I feel embarrassed for you.

Here, let me help.

The Confederacy was the principle of limited federal government and states rights. So even though the Confederacy failed, it was a promotion of local government over the far off federal tyranny.

All bullcrap, of course, but it makes a better case than “Burn any heretics,lately?” Oh, my. I'll say a prayer for you.
