It wasn't over slavery the last time either. That is just useful propaganda created to justify the invasion of states. It was after the fact excuse making for Dictatorial excess.
See my tag line.

It not a civil war, it’s a battle about morality.
the godless have no basis for immorality, and they see none — except where a desired act is judged immoral or contrary to their desires.
Absent God, there is only power and the will to enforce false moralities.
This is the second oldest battle in Creation.
-Abortion
-Gun control
-Socialism
-Free Speech
-Property Rights
-Taxation
-Appropriation
-Entitlements
-Promoting and Mandating Deviance
-Outlawing Christianity/Judaism
-Illegal aliens
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera
It is absolutely unconscionable that the left will destroy the country and want to kill those who oppose the killing of babies.
It is a war to stop the ongoing murdering of babies. It is already a physically violent war. The left made sure of that. The response should be equal or greater in magnitude.
“...It is absolutely unconscionable ...”
That’s because you’re starting with the assumption that the Left actually HAS a conscience to begin with.
They don’t. They don’t CARE.
Start from the fact that they will do anything and everything to you, your family, and any like you, to gain power.
And then treat them accordingly - as they existential threat to your life and liberty that they are.
It IS and always HAS BEEN a war. And they understand that better than our side has been willing to.
Good point
Wait until Trump nominates Coney Barrett.
White woman are upset that fewer black babies will be aborted.
There fixed it.
The Democrat Party Prime Directive for the past fifty years: Kill the baby.
Don’t see what they have to stand on as far as a moral high ground.
Can’t kill people, abortion is killing people.
Can’t kill the poor to help poverty, abortion kills poor people
Can’t call it not a human being, its not a vegetable growing in the womb.
Can’t consider women as the only victims, abortion transfers the tyranny of the strong over the week from women to their innocent children.
Am I missing something?
Oh yeah, can’t impose a sentence on women to carry a baby to term, because somehow the baby is at fault for being there. If its not rape, she is responsible for it being their by her actions. If it is rape, then legally we should treat both the mother and the child as victims and I am fine with a social aid for rape cases. I’m more in favor of legal obligations a perpetrator has to those who are their victims of rape.
Look this is nothing like slavery and don’t even make the comparison
No human being is indentured and forced to do labor and his property of another human being in this case
The hyperbole in you media types is completely and utterly pathetic
Now on the issue of life it is a critical issue of importance to the moral fabric of this or any society
The forces of life mostly Christian are loving kind generous and patient
We use kindness and patience in our protesting to try to convince little girls not to murder their baby
The other side minions of Satan have to take up the position of trying to convince little girls to murder their baby merely for “convenience”
Let them have at it
There will be no shooting war with 700,000 over young and best man dead
There will be no families put it against families shooting at each other
There will be no constitutional amendments passed two for bid things that went on
This is a spiritual war
This is a war of words and actions
It wasn’t over slavery the last time either. That is just useful propaganda created to justify the invasion of states.
Lincoln couldn’t say the war was over slavery because he had no legal way to achieve that end, so for the first half of the war the goal was to preserve the Union. For the first part of the war the army was ordered to return runaway slaves to their owners. Lincoln then seized on the idea that the slaves were helping the southern war effort and could legally be declared ‘contraband’ and not returned to their owners. From that, Lincoln moved to the Emancipation Proclamation which carefully excluded slaves in states that hadn’t seceded (MO, MD, KY, DE) and areas under Union control (parts of TN & LA).
Bottom line, whatever might be said, the Civil War was all about slavery. The parallels with the abortion debate are striking. At the same time that you have states (NY & VA) guaranteeing abortion up to the moment of birth (and perhaps a bit after) and lighting up buildings celebrating the fact, you have other states banning the procedure in hopes of reversing a SCOTUS decision which discovered the “right” hiding in a penumbra of a right to privacy.
“A civil war is certain.”
He can’t be serious. Or he doesn’t know what a civil war is. 60 MILLION children have already been slaughtered, where are the torches and pitchforks, the legions, the militia, the tanks, the battles?
You couldn’t raise a quorum to wage a true war in America today.
Why, it would slow down the internet, interrupt cell service, and might even preempt your favorite shows.
Based on his actions, he clearly had no intention of achieving that end when he started the war.
The Ghost Amendment that Haunts Lincoln's Legacy.
Bottom line, whatever might be said, the Civil War was all about slavery.
If it was all about slavery, why was Lincoln trying to give them all the protection for slavery they could possibly want?
If it was all about slavery, why didn't they take the deal?
The civil War was not about slavery. The south seceded when it realized that it would a permanent political minority.
Lincoln switched from maintaining the union as a war goal to abolishing slavery because of the appalling casualties. He needed a moral reason to justify the massive amount of deaths.
This is more idolatry than anything else. The ancient Israelites used to murder their babies as a sacrifice to the false “gods” Baal and Molech and they were condemned by the real God for their evil. Now they’re sacrificing their babies to an even worse false “god,” i.e., self.
The parallels between the conflict over the Second Amendment’s guarantee to bear arms and the made up abortion rights in Roe are stark, but I don’t think abortion will spark a civil war.
There is nothing stopping an Alabama woman from going to NYC and aborting her 9 month old baby just before birth.
