RJHinds quote in reply to Duchess64 in the Debates forum:
"You are showing your "abysmal" knowledge of American History, since you don't understand that Americans don't consider that people that begin fighting a war on one side or the other become traitors by being on the losing side of the war. Americans consider the traitors as those that change sides during the war, regardless of winning or losing.
Also at that time the Negro was considered animal property, like cattle and horses, and less than human, so they did not see a conflict between "all men are created equal" and their use of them as work animals. They had not yet evolved into humans could have been their reasoning. Who knows? "
I admit I'm not sure what has shocked me most. The disgusting bigotry being publicly displayed by RJHinds on that thread or the admission that he believes in evolution. Oh the irony.

No, you are misrepresenting what I said. I have always said I do not believe in the theory of evolution and have posted that on my profile.
What I said here is not what I believe, but speculation to what the southern slave owners may have believed. That is why I asked the question: Who knows?

That means I don't know, numbnuts.

Yesterday it was the word 'abysmal.' Are you simply working your way through the dictionary?
