Abolitionists opposed war primarily because they believed it perpetuated violence and suffering, which contradicted their moral stance against slavery and injustice. Many viewed war as a means that could lead to more oppression and hardship for enslaved individuals. Additionally, they feared that conflict would divert attention and resources away from the urgent fight for emancipation and civil rights. Their commitment to nonviolence and social reform made them skeptical of war as a solution to societal problems.

The abolitionists were people who were against slavery in the 1800's, and believed in the immediate end and abolishment of slavery in America. Abolitionists sought to pass laws preventing the spread of slavery. They helped Southern slaves escape to Canada, many using the organized network of the Underground Railroad. Some abolitionists just helped slaves tell their story. In 1860, the election of pro-abolition congressmen led to the secession of the Southern slave states to form the Confederacy, leading to the Civil War.

In my history book, Chapter 10 talks about the slaves and the black codes used to fight against the abolitionists.
Abolitionists used religion to justify their cause by emphasizing Christian values such as compassion, equality, and dignity for all individuals, regardless of race. They argued that slavery was incompatible with these beliefs and that it went against the teachings of love and justice in the Bible. Many abolitionists were motivated by their faith to fight against slavery and believed it was their moral duty to work towards its abolition.
