For the folks who werent taught the truth..

Excerpt

Robert E. Lee, before the outbreak of the war, was overwhelmingly regarded as the finest military mind in the U.S. army. Winfield Scott offered him command of all Union forces at the outbreak of hostilities. But he chose allegiance to his state of Virginia, rather than the Federal government. He didn’t fight for slavery. He freed his slaves. He was fighting for states’ rights. He was an honorable God fearing noble man. Stonewall Jackson was an extremely religious man who waged war with a passion, but also taught Sunday School to slaves. Lee and Jackson must be viewed in the context of the 19th century rather than being judged by the standards of the 21st century.

The vast majority of Confederate soldiers who did the fighting and dying during that war didn’t own slaves. They weren’t fighting to maintain slavery. They were fighting because a foreign army had invaded their land. In 1860 this nation was more an amalgamation of states than a centralized government. States still had a tremendous amount of power and leeway to run their states the way they chose. The ever increasing power of a central authority occurred during and after the Civil War. The South were not the bad guys. Their leaders, generals and soldiers were not evil. They were Americans.

Done regularly by the folks who never had any idea what Lincoln actually said about slavery. Most refuse to allow themselves to modify what they

 "...  climate change guys, or ... "

Like, 'scientists', who said, 'root banding', of a human hair was proof, that hair came from a dead human body.
Which has been proven to be totally false.

LOL.
Cool.
Srinath.

'Scientists' said it is so, (and some, still say it's true)
after NON, 'Scientists', have PROVEN it is not so.

So, the people that believe it is true,
JUST because someone called a, Scientist said so.
Can keep saying their argument is accurate ? "


 We can keep saying anything unelated to the topic all day, but this isn't about accuracy, it is about if a non-scientist "cares about" the information.

 I am saying that in your example, to relate it to this forum and specifically to this forum, very specific to this forum's Tall Table section with the exclusion of all other sections of all other forums of any kind, that a non-scientist that says "I don't care about that" is what it would be like when specifically relating only to this forum and no other forum.

 Because, a non-scientist, when presented information specific to a topic (root banding or laws that don't even exist presented as fact, or Trump's Twitter account) that the non-scientist "doesn't care" about, that information is to be excluded.  This is based exclusively on what this non-scientist "cares about" and by no other accuracy/inaccuracy/relevance etc.
