I looked up James Henry Thornwell- Thornwell was a Presbyterian minister who was in favour of slavery. He wanted to evangelize slaves. He insisted that the church was a spiritual organization concerned with matters of heavenly (not earthly) concern (The Doctrine of the Spirituality of the Church). He maintained that Presbyterians did not want to entangle their lives with issues that did not affect the final test of God.
Hmmmnn not on my good guys list!
