of course it existed.
Several largest church denominations divided into the northern and southern congregations before the war over the slavery issue.
Chinese do not believe in any religion, but you should not assume that religion is nothing in the American history.
The slavery issue definitely teared this nation apart along the morality dimension.
For southerners, slaves were assets. While Northern side did not want to live with slavery forever. Yes, you can argue slavery is about 生产方式, but for me it is a morality issue.
BTW, in my other post, I have refuted the argument that the war helped to free the labor market for African Americans. The fact was the Northern side imported skilled or unskilled labor from Europe to satisfy industrial needs.
The southern slave states of Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Lousiana were the poorest states in the union ever since the end of civil war and they had been like this for around 100 years.
Market for industrialization comes from the mid-west and far western states. Most railway routes in late 1860s were east-west, with much less mileage devoted to link the deep south.
