I regard Lincoln as America's Saviour, in much the same way that Christ was Mankind's Saviour.

Careful when you paint Abe with same brush as Christ. Careful.

I'm merely quoting what many theologians pointed out after Lincoln's death. Many took great note of the fact that the President was assassinated on Good Friday.

I strongly believe that Lincoln was a Heavenly Gift to this country. In fact, Lincoln, something of a free thinker, when pressed about Emancipation, was said to have looked skyward and said he was under orders and could not do otherwise.

Imagine if he said that today. :)

I'm not embarrassed to assert that Lincoln saved this country from countless evils. There must have been something that impelled the man to send countless hundreds of thousands to their deathes.
