What type of evidence is used in this excerpt from "the crisis, no.1" by thomas paine?

i once felt all that kind of anger, which a man ought to feel, against the mean principles that are held by the tories: a noted one, who kept a tavern at amboy, was standing at his door, with as pretty a child in his hand, about eight or nine years old, as i ever saw, and after speaking his mind as freely as he thought was prudent, finished with this unfatherly expression, "well! give me peace in my day." not a man lives on the continent but fully believes that a separation must some time or other finally take place, and a generous parent should have said, "if there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace."

a. empirical evidence
b. emotional evidence
c. logical evidence
d. anecdotal evidence

The correct answer is:

D. Anecdotal evidence.

Explanation:

Thomas Paine wrote Crisis No.1 to unify the colonists and to convince them that the separation of the American Colonies from the English Crown was inevitable and that it needed to happen sooner than later.

In this excerpt, Paine used anecdotal evidence (which refers to evidence of events that the author has lived and experienced) to appeal to the emotions of his audience. He talked about a father that wanted to live in peace and to leave the search of independence for the future generations instead of searching for independence right now, so that his child could live in peace.

life will not be easy it will be filled with war, lack of resources, damaged planet, and lack of land to live on.

i imagine life will be easier in the sense that we will have better technology and better health and medical advances as well as infustructure growth and economic resilliance we will have much stronger militaries and probably be constintly fighting with other countries for resources and lang that is actually cleanenough to live or farm on . as well i think the need for fresh water will only brainliest answer lol

the answer that is correct is the last option.
