Many African Missionaries played a large part in ending Slavery. David Livingstone was an Anti-Slavery Crusader.

No one’s denying that individual Christians can and do perform good - even heroic - acts.

If Livingstone had been a non-Christian (or even an atheist), would his contributions to Abolition have been diminished?

No. But Christ's Teaching, because it is Universal, clearly had an impact on Livingstone, and through him, for the better of the Good African People. Unlike false ethnic nationalism and other limited philosophies, Christ's Teaching to love one's neighbor as oneself is the best hope for the world imo. It is universal, it does not discriminate. It inspired many Anti-Racists from Livingstone to Wilberforce to Lincoln to Dr. MLK - as is very well known - to Billy Graham, to Reinhard Bonnke etc.
