There's no demonstrable truth to any part of that.

“...slavery would have ended...”

If the Confederacy wanted to end slavery, why is it that they wrote the following in their Constitution?

“No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed.”

It sure does not appear to me that the CSA had planned to do away with slavery.

Please tell us where you get the idea that the Confederates had planned to abolish slavery.

“..all our ancestors wanted was independence..”

And what do you think those who were held in Slavery during the Confederacy wanted?

Is there any reason why the wants and desires of your ancestors were more important than the wants and desires of those who were held in slavery?
