I have no great love of the confederacy.
However, I DO have a great deal of respect for SOME of their political ideas and for some of their leaders.
On the other hand, I find it difficult to have much respect for people who simply, and more often than not caustically, dismiss those ideas out of hand and/or show disdain for the brave men who, however misguidedly, fought for those ideas.
Have a nice evening.
The slave issue was a curse hanging over them, however. By including that in the non negotiables, they doomed themselves morally.
Guess you never got involved in the great Civil War debate here. You have a lovely evening also and a Merry Christmas. You’re welcome.
The northerners werent fighting to prevent slavery. They fought for other reasons. Most of them probably couldnt have cared less about the slavery issue. Thats a fairy tell.
