If a title of a book is that about a "Man of Faith and Courage", and you have a preveiw of that book, should it have a profound statement of the man's faith and courage somewhere in it. I have read quite a few books on Mr. Lincoln, and have yet to see any link to him having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ anywhere in them. Maybe books about great men such as Robert E. Lee and Thomas Jackson who gave praise and honor to our Lord and Savior should be elevated and brought to the readers attention. Who know's, in 150 years someone may write a book on Bill Clinton and tell all of the public what a man of devout faith he was during his presidency. And along the same lines, that the war in Iraq was to free the slave's that were abused there, just as our history makes the Civil War of our country about salvery and not the economic war that it really was.

As Christians we should not assume the propaganda written about him. He never agreed the Jesus Christ was divine. He never said that he accepted Christ as Saviour. Here is a quote:
"My earlier views of the unsoundness of the Christian scheme of salvation and the human origin of the sriptures have become clearer and stronger with advancing years, and I see no reason for thinking I shall ever change them."
1862 letter to Judge J.S. Wakefield,
Lincoln was a Racist:
I am not now, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social or political equality of the white and black races. I am not now nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor of intermarriages with white people. There is a physical difference between the white and the black races which will forever forbid the two races living together on social or political equality.....
