<span>The reason why Lincoln needed a military victory was to prove that his government had the power to enforce this law.  Without a military victory, it would not be applied to the states where slavery is being practiced making useless.  Secretary of State William Seward also advised the President that it would be best to issue the Proclamation after a military victory.  When the Union army drove back the Confederate forces commanded by General Robert E. Lee at the Battle of Antietam, it was the victory that Lincoln needed to issue the Emancipation Proclamation.</span>

Explain the relationship among Christianity, individualism, and secularism in the political landscape of the Renaissance
vesna_86 [32]

By the time the Renaissance occurred, this social attitude was beginning to change. Religion was still practiced, but people began to be more focused on secular or humanist values, rather than spirituality, at this time.</span>
