Lincoln's Christianity by Michael Burkhimer

[Eva Elisabeth]

Mary told Herndon her husband "felt religious More than Ever about the time he went to Gettysburg...he read the bible a good deal about 1864." I think he was seriously doing this, increasingly searching for himself, not for PR. Well, Herndon himself was an atheist, and I think it's quite obvious that he either couldn't imagine or didn't want to believe this (as in his early days I think Lincoln was indeed sceptical). Herndon also didn't witness Lincoln closely during his presidency, so how can he make such final judgement as for what Lincoln remained?!
