Sadly, there's a lot of nonsense posted by many different groups, who each want the rest of us to be just as nuts as they are.

"Evidence" is one thing.
How we understand the real evidence is something else entirely.

I posted a couple of quotes from Lincoln which demonstrate he was a racist and a white supremacist. There are scads of such quotes.

And you are trying to present this evidence as "something else entirely"?

No, it's right on point, and it's absolutely conclusive. You just can't bring yourself to admit this.

I remember you had a similar reaction when I posted information indicating Lincoln was an atheist. You can't bring yourself to contemplate the idea.
