It’s always amusing seeing Lincoln linked with appeals to God. He was some kind of politician, that’s for sure.

As a student of Lincoln you surely know of his reputation for ridiculing ministers in his youth. You know that he never joined a church. You know that his close friends prided themselves on being infidels, and that they defended Lincoln against the ‘charge’ of ever having been a Christian. Their defenses of Lincoln’s unbelief are easy to find. You know that one of his friends burned a manuscript of Lincoln’s to protect his ability to run for office.

But I digress. While those quotes from the Gospel of Abraham are all very poetic none of them deal with the simple little logical problem that I posted.

Slave owners = Evil.
Founders = Slave owners.
ergo:
Founders = ??

Solve for X.

Come on pal, read the posts.
Your question here is fully answered in my post #160 above, among others who also addressed it.
