which detail from narrative of the life of frederick douglass best supports the idea that those who cite religion to support slavery are hypocrites?
a. "for when their day's work in the field is done, the most of them having their washing, mending, and cooking to do, and having few or none of the ordinary facilities for doing either of these, very many of their sleeping hours are consumed in preparing for the field the coming day; and when this is done, old and young, male and female, married and single, drop down side by side, on one common bed,—the cold, damp floor,—each covering himself or herself with their miserable blankets; and here they sleep till they are summoned to the field by the driver's horn."
b. "no words, no tears, no prayers, from his gory victim, seemed to move his iron heart from its bloody purpose. the louder she screamed, the harder he whipped; and where the blood ran fastest, there he whipped longest. he would whip her to make her scream, and whip her to make her hush; and not until overcome by fatigue, would he cease to swing the blood-clotted cowskin."
c. "the master is frequently compelled to sell this class of his slaves, out of deference to the feelings of his white wife."
d. "if the lineal descendants of ham are alone to be scripturally enslaved, it is certain that slavery at the south must soon become unscriptural; for thousands are ushered into the world, annually, who, like myself, owe their existence to white fathers, and those fathers most frequently their own masters."
