Great post! But they are not going to listen. It will go back to the same old arguement. The CW was fought to end slavery, blah blah blah.

It will go back to the same old arguement. The CW was fought to end slavery,

It was fought for a variety of reasons. The disagreement on these threads is rarely over why it was fought, but rather, why it was begun.

That is a related, but different thing.
