[[Image:Conf_Navy_Jack.png|thumb|right|500px|The [[Confederate States of America]] relied heavily on creationism to justify [[racism]] and [[slavery]]. Confederate Vice President [[Alexander H.

[Slavery] is, indeed, in conformity with the ordinance of the Creator. It is not for us to inquire into the wisdom of His ordinances, or to question them. For His own purposes, He has [[Intelligent Design|made]] one race to differ from another, as He has made 'one star to differ from another star in glory.'" The Confederate President [[Jefferson Davis]] said that slavery "was established by decree of Almighty God... it is sanctioned in the [[Bible]], in both Testaments, from [[Genesis]] to [[Revelation]]... it has existed in all ages, has been found among the people of the highest civilization, and in nations of the highest proficiency in the arts."]]
