I similarly to you; until they showed that the northern army returned the Bible and let him live. In that moment, I think they really showed that the Union was far more respectable. The confederates were dumb hicks fighting at the behest of the ultra wealthy plantation owners

They gave it back after doing a war crime and executing prisoners of war. They also executed them with a fucking gattling gun which is just cruel. I think they were trying to get you to sympathize with the confederates about to die instead of the northerners who were killing an already defeated foe.
