Now you can keep all conversations in here.
So you Confederate apologists can keep trying to rewrite history and not sully the other interesting thread.

I try not to use that, since we did fire the first shots. WBTS is accurate, as that was exactly what it was - a civil war would have been about one faction gaining control of the entire country, not a seccessionist movement.

Wrong. The South left the Union over Slavery. The Union started the Civil War to bring the South back into the Union, not to end slavery there.

Why was slavery still acceptable in parts of the north after the start of the war? I haven't been able to figure out where that fits in with the idea that the war was about slavery and nothing else.

Again, all reasons the South left the Union. But that does not make it the reason the Union started the war.

Silly argument is silly. Without slavery and the threat of abolition, and subsequent secession over slavery - there is no war.
Slavery was pretty much the sole cause. No sense in playing mental gymnastics about it.
