I found what you wrote very interesting. i have been doing research on the points you did and i was amazed. you don't exactly hear this in you history class. i new that it was somewhat filtered but, have never thought about looking into it. the only point i could not find was the book he had written "explicitly rejecting the veracity of the Bible." do you think you would be able to send me the tittle. hello, i am a high school student. we are debating if president Lincoln was a good president. i am on the apposing team.

But, as to slavery, reconstruction, the civil war etc. I can think of no better man than we had at the time than Abraham Lincoln. I have studied his life and his actions. He did the best he could to keep the Union together. That was his first and foremost acts. His second priority was to bring an end to slavery. He was without any doubt placed into his position by divine power and we who are the beneficiaries of his acts will someday see this more clearly. For many this revelation will not sink in until the next life. If you really study the man, you will learn, that he had one character that few in this life ever really achieve. He had true Charity for all, and most especially the common man. He was, and will be one of the greatest Presidents, we have ever had to preside over this nation.

Lincoln was. Very bad guy, an atheist! Wow, he was a normal man! The big problem is that those who ARE historians, strongly disagree with your bashing. They think that Lincoln was one of the greatest American presidents. Learn some history and judge him in the context of his time.

It is my belief they are only puppets influenced by the voting replublic. Lincoln made mistakes but, so has every man born with one exception. I see alot of great things come from Lincoln administration and if he had not been assisnated I also believe he would have reversed several wartime necessary policies. We the people make this nation and it is us coming to agreements for the beter that will put our country back on top. I dont blame a single President.
