The Confederate Creed


“In history, truth should be held sacred, at whatever cost . . . especially against the narrow and futile patriotism, which, instead of pressing forward in pursuit of truth, takes pride in walking backwards to cover the slightest nakedness of our forefathers.”    
 
                                                              - Lt. Col. Thomas Aspinwall
                                                                         (1698-1774)
 
 
 

In 1894, The United Daughters of the Confederacy (parent organization of the Children of the Confederacy) was formed to:
  • Study the "War Between the States" (us Yankees call it The Civil War)
  • Study the Confederate Catechism (it explains why the Union/ Lincoln/ Radical Abolitionists were fully to blame for the Civil War and that the Confederacy fought for a Noble Cause- States' Rights, Popular Sovereignty, Self-Government, etc.)
  • Study the Flags of the Confederacy...the Christian Character of Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, Stonewall Jackson, battles, the role of women in the war, etc...
  • Deny slavery as a reason for the Civil War
  • Promote the love and defense of Southern Heritage...The Truth of the Southern Cause...A Love of Justice...Memory of the war through statues and memorials, etc.
  • Fight against Northern political correctness...public school/ government "lies" about the war, etc.

 
 
The Children of the Confederacy is a youth organization formed in 1897 by the United Daughters of the Confederacy for children from birth to 18 years who have Confederate ancestors. 
 
The purpose of the organization is stated in their creed:
 
 
 
 

 
I readily acknowledge that I too honor my "noble and patriotic ancestors" who fought in the Civil War (Minnesota 6th and 7th Regiments), WWI, WWII, Korean and Vietnam Wars...
 
But, that doesn't mean that I blindly glorify their efforts, blatantly disregard the truths of history/ false flag causes of war, or whitewash the injustices of war.
