What details have I left out that would make what they did moral? They decided they didn't want the government telling them they couldn't own slaves so they declared themselves to be a sovereign territory? Does that really change anything?
Yet, you support sanctuary cities not wanting the government telling them what to do. Would you support secession for California?What details have I left out that would make what they did moral?

so Christians in the US are at fault for the actions of Christians somewhere else who own slaves?
Christians are part of the institution, however I would consider the ones who denounce such practices as not culpable, or far less culpable, than the hypothetical ones who are pro-slavery. I think there's still room to blame the doctrine upon which the institution is founded though.
Christianity was founded upon the doctrine of slavery? or are you saying Christianity founded slavery itself, either in this nation or ever?
funny considering the slaves and lower class were the first to switch over.
What? No. Slavery was part of the doctrine. The Bible prescribes where to get slaves from and how to treat them.
