Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural, described by Frederick Douglass as "a sacred effort", is one of the finest speeches in American history. Your criticism of it rules out any question about whether you are sane.

Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural, described by Frederick Douglass as "a sacred effort", is one of the finest speeches in American history. What matters to me of Lincoln's speech is not the standard of Frederick Douglass but rather the standard of God. Blaming God for a war that you yourself created is an act of blasphemy. Lincoln did that therefore Lincoln is a blasphemer.
