Grant didn’t surrender to Lee because it was Lincoln that called out to God for help. And FWICR, the Confederacy had no intention of taking over the rule of the northern states. A divided USA would have gone nowhere, something tells me, and might have been reabsorbed by Britain.
Then we know for sure that there wasn't a Christian south of the Mason-Dixon and God loves a man who goes to the whorehouse now and again.
We know that because while Lee, Jackson, and the majority of the Southern leadership would never lower themselves to going whoring, God obviously loves men like Lincoln who visit a whorehouse now and again prior to marriage.
Divided? That's another canard from the BS artists. Had Grant surrendered to Lee the South would be in charge with no reason to form a separate nation. They could simply stick to their interpretation of the Constitution which would have been the path of least resistance for them anyway given the number of "Copperheads" in Congress and Union State legislatures.
Really? Lincoln praying? The industrial output and massive population advantage of the north decided that conflict. I also don’t believe England was capable of taking either side or even a beat up state or two. BTW, the united USA doesn’t appear to be going anywhere good at this point in time.
