Chris replies to the comments of a listener concerning states rights and the American Civil War. Was Abraham Lincoln fighting against state's rights? And how did things change as a result of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution? The 14th amendment was originally intended to grant citizenship to the freed slaves, and yet it has been used in modern times to promote everything from abortion to homosexual marriage. In fact, the upcoming decision of the U.S. Supreme court this April will be focused on the interpretation of this particular amendment.
