Are you trying to "win"?

With all of your respective ideologies flying around, I've had to ask myself if you're actually trying to "win". Do you have an understanding that we are one human race of people? Is competition really needed when we, as humans, have escaped such things as animalistic instnict with logic and justice?

Do you have ethics or morals that are absolute, or do they only apply to you and yours? I'm not talking about "Let's be one World"- I am merely questioning whether you all feel more fulfilled by treating others negatively for whatever reason or if you'd rather help everyone and anyone you can.

It's not a directive, but a question.

Lincoln did not start the war. The South started the war. Lincoln wanted South Carolina to come back and he was not going to touch slavery in the south. At the end of the war he had a plan for Reconstruction that would completely forgive the south, and help it rebuild. Lincoln did absolutely everything in his power to keep the Union together and to prevent war. There were many factors in the causation of the Civil War, Lincoln, however, was not one of them, much less THE factor. It was about state rights, federal power, and the constitution primarily. I really have no clue where you filled your head with those nonsensical ideas.
