ABRAHAM LINCOLN NEVER EXISTED: WAS LINCOLN A MYTH BY REV DANIEL BRAXTON TURNEY

At one time or another we’ve all questioned as to whether all that we see and arc experiencing in our world has some sort of a rational plan behind it, because we understand now that both the Republican and Democratic Parties in America are basically run by the same people. The same money finances both sides.

The following article, by Reverend Braxton Turney really caught my attention when I read it, and definitely warned me that any of these groups have been deceiving us for many centuries. But, did Lincoln exist? Well, I do not know. I was not there.

Daniel B. Turney (1848-1926), maverick Methodist Protestant preacher, was born in a log cabin, grew up in a governor’s mansion and twice failed to win the White House. He was a pioneer prohibitionist, who guzzled coffee; a woman’s suffragist who neglected his wife; a preacher always seeking a new pulpit. By age 32, he was headquartered in Washington, D.C. as his denomination’s official Polemic; having published dozens of scholarly articles, lost a book in Chicago’s Great Fire and been booted out of churches in Illinois, Ohio and West Virginia. Turney’s great-grandfather, Carter Braxton, was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. He was also related to Henry Clay, the famous pre-Civil War statesman. Turney cherished ancient books, dabbled in modern science, entered any political fray and offered opinions about everything. He blazed a philosophical trail, mastered dozens of languages, thrilled and bewildering both friends and enemies. He was lauded and laughed at; respected and ridiculed; fondly remembered and widely forgotten. Turney lived and died in poverty but found wealth in words and in faith

“Modern historians who believe that Abraham Lincoln was President might acknowledge that, when it comes to their office mates Bob and George, Tom and William, Peter and Arthur, Mary and Amanda, they dont believe that any of these people is or ever was President. We are all President-disbelievers about most people. Some of us just go one President further.”
