Correct. The answer is D. The United States was founded on the Enlightenment notion of natural rights, which held that all men were created equal and entitled to life and liberty. Harper is so intent on opposing abolitionists and justifying slavery that he is willing to challenge this fundamental American tenet.

Correct. The answer is B. As part of his defense of slavery, Harper suggests that “it is the order of nature and of God, that the being of superior faculties and knowledge, and therefore of superior power, should control and dispose of those who are inferior.” He is essentially suggesting that God created men and the world, intending to make some beings superior over others.

Correct. The answer is A. Here Stringfellow suggests not only that Jesus permitted slavery to continue, but that the institution of slavery had been created by God himself. If God created it, and Jesus accepted it, Stringfellow reasoned, then slavery was not a sin.
