Out of curiosity though what did you come with?  

• Teaches people how to keep their sheets very white.
• Encourages gathering in groups outside. Helps make like minded friends.
  

I agree that if we can understand why someone joins such an organization maybe we can try to get them out of it.  I just think that's different than looking for positives.  

And I think slavery is even more different.

 

About the only thing was that they were a key force in fighting carpetbaggers from the north that came to exploit the south
