Was Abraham Lincoln’s views on race reflective of his morals or were they utilized for political gain?

History
1 answer:
Montano1993 [528]4 years ago
5 0

Lincoln was firm politically in proposing that slavery is morally wrong but he was not an abolitionist himself.

Explanation:

His views regarding the racial equality were always tending to be controversial and complicated. There had been a situation wherein Lincoln admitted that constitution mandated certain clauses for abolition but he did not know what exactly need to be done to abolish slavery from the current political system.

Lincoln seemed to be working with abolitionists but did not count himself to be totally responsible to abolish slavery. Only with the emancipation he could win over the black’s votes.

What was Calvin’s idea of the “elect” and their place in society?
ICE Princess25 [194]
Calvin's idea is that the "elect" are those that are predestined for heaven, that who will go to heaven and hell is predetermined by God. This meant for a more liberal place in society, because what you actually did in life and what others did, didn't matter as much, you couldn't change your fate.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

A prolonged war and greatly increased the number of casualties in the war

Explanation:

In World War I we saw the introduction of chemical weapons, machine guns, artillery, and tanks. All of this resulted in trench warfare and the lack of tactics to fight the new weapons meant that the war would be longer and a lot deadlier than it would have been without those weapons. It dragged for years from one stalemate to another and claimed a lot of lives.
