Explanation:

US abolitionists' core objections to slavery stemmed from moral, ethical, religious, and humanitarian beliefs. Moral opposition centered on viewing slavery as a fundamental wrong. A commitment to equality meant they held that all people deserved equal treatment regardless of race. Humanitarian concerns included outrage at the cruel treatment of enslaved people. Many also tied their opposition to Christian values, arguing slavery violated the faith's teachings of compassion and the inherent dignity of all people. Cost was not a primary motivating factor for abolitionists.

Answer:

• They believed that slavery was immoral.
• They believed that all people should be treated equally.
• They believed that many enslaved people were treated cruelly.
• They believed that slavery was un-Christian.
