...in the United States? Yes, most states had designated or official denominations of Chistianinty. When the North won the civil war, the 14th amendment was passed to clarify the "Union States" view that the states could not have laws in conflict with federal "privileges or immunities" , this caused the constitutional prohibition of a federal religion to be applied to the states also, and thus abolished state religions.

What was the relationship between slavery and sectional feeling and what was the relationship between slavery and other issues in the 1850s?

First of all their was not a relationship.... it was an institution. The feeling about this institution was both mixed and accepted. It probably was accepted because the Christian world did not speak out openly against it. And during this period of our American history, it was not clearly understood about the negative aspects, that was to come out of slavery. Slavery and the issues that it brought up were huge....... When something is institutionalized, it becomes a part of you. And slavery became a large part of the American foundation from the South to the North.
