Abraham Lincoln, the former president of America is well known for his views against slavery but the fact is that he was never against slavery; rather, his own statements were ambiguous. His only concern was to make the union stronger regardless of whatever it requires. That’s why he said during1862’s Emancipation Proclamation that he will not bother freeing all, some or even no slave to make the union stronger. At that time, Confederate states were at war after their separation from the Union.

John Adams belonged to Unitarian; a belief that Jesus was not God’s son but a person with good character and moral. George Washington was Pantheist; who believed that nature itself is god. Alexander Hamilton became Christian after the murder of his son.
