Well yes and no. The secession that led into the Civil War wasn’t precipitated by high dudgeon about whether or not keeping slaves was okay. However the curse of practicing slavery did hang over the south, with typical confederate state laws affirming slaves to be as much property as horses and houses were. That can’t have pleased God at all, and on the human level it beckoned on a certain level of moral blindness in other areas.
However one feels about slavery, a most vile practice, the slaves were considered property by no less than the Constitution. Dred Scott reaffirmed the damnable practice that was the law at the time. It was immoral, yet we accept the murder of the unborn and now suptreme power unto the federal government.
In their secession, the Confederate States were right in opposing this damnable beast that has become master of its creators. Too many today will sigh and say the Court has spoken, there is nothing left to do.
We have two choices left to us: a) Accept the chains and become slaves to the federal government; or b) fight to the last breath standing as a free man. I choose FREEDOM.
