Great man. Never heard of him before Rush Limbaugh mentioned the movie on his show today. Thanks to Mark Steyn. Educational bump!

The fact is that slavery was ended in England by Evangelical Christians, and in America by Republicans. Needless to say, this is simply unacceptable to the leftists, who cannot stomache the idea that progress is made by anyone by leftists, so they have simply written it out of history.

Instead, the British Empire and the Republicans are the designated villains, and Christianity is a menace to all right (i.e., left) thinking people.

One ironic result was that in the 60s blacks were persuaded that Christians were the oppressors, and so they turned to Islam--even though Islam did more than any other force to spread slavery through the post-classical world.

William Wilberforce strikes one as one of those rare men of principle who does the right thing because he is convinced the right thing is necessary for the salvation of mankind. He was never a politician which makes his achievement all the more extraordinary. Thanks to his efforts, the West is today a far freer place.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
