"Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith, let us, to the end, dare to do our duty as we understand it." 
Abraham Lincoln

To impute detailed knowledge of God's will calls to mind Lincoln's cautionary not: “In times like the present, men should utter nothing for which they would not willingly be responsible through time and eternity.”
