Slavery was not the main reason for the Confederacy.  It was state's rights.

 

Ok, I'm sure they used the state's rights as a more justified reason.  But it still mainly came down to they wanted the states to be able to decide on slavery, which is wrong.  No Government, state, Nation should be able to make rules/laws that allow any ownership of another person.  It is just wrong.

Of course it is in this day and age, but at the time it was a necessary evil.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
