BTW they were not "northern" soldiers, they were American soldiers.

This is particularly relevant, considering that tens of thousands of southerners chose to fight under the United States flag. When Nathan "Grand Dragon" Forrest's troops captured Fort Pillow in Tennessee, for example, they didn't just murder black American troops- they murdered scores of Appalachian whites who fought alongside them.

Eh, not really. Most rabid fundie Christians were the abolitionists (like John Brown.)

It also is worth noting, though, that virtually all abolitionists were mainline Protestants. Not all could be called "fundies" by any means.
