Slavery & the Civil War

Slavery was at the heart of the American Civil War, and is the main reason for the South's secession from the North.

^ Do you guys agree or disagree with this statement? I've been re-learning the details of the Civil War recently and found that the statement does seem to ring true, and that Neo-Confederates are arguably saying what the South stood for was OK. I guess this thread could also be about whether flying the Confederate flag is offensive or not.
