Funny you should ask that. It was the evangelical movement in England (Wilburforce) that played a major role there and Christians played a major role in abolition in the U.S.

Don't you think "do unto others" is a principle that would apply to abolition?

Okieshooter, I point you back to that very short video (the first few minutes of it is enough to convey its message) Oddlane linked to in post #39 above.
