such wonderful chritsians just fighting for their right to treat others as chattel
Hey man, they had moral truth on their side.

Confederate Vice President Alexander Stephens said:
Our new government is founded upon exactly [this] idea; its foundations are laid, its corner-stone rests, upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery subordination to the superior race, is his natural and normal condition. This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral truth.

Political Meme - Cartoon Thread (ONLY)...

Symbols shift in meaning over the years, take the swastika, for example...
That's actually a great example. It means one thing to the Western world however it still means the same as it always has to Indians. In the ancient Indian language of Sanskrit it means "well being". I have recently seen an Indian co-worker buy a new car and actually paint the symbol on the hood of the car where the hood ornament would be located. The symbol looked as if it had been "finger painted" on and was about the size of a half-dollar coin.
