One of the reasons given for continuing slavery was that Southerners stated that slavery was both moral because it was practiced in biblical times, and financially necessary for the economy of the country.

Southerners justified slavery by saying that:

  • It was practiced in the Bible which means that Christians should support it.
  • It was important to the economy as it allowed the South to gain resources which were sold to the North and exported outside.

The South were therefore adamant that slavery was a good thing and supported it so much that they seceded an then went to war over it.

In conclusion, the South had multiple reasons for their support of slavery.
