II. Spiders are powerless should a rock fall on them.
Explanation:
<em>Edward here claims that Non-believers of God are analogous to spiders to affirm the power supreme authority i.e. The Almighty God. He argues that if one is engrossed in his/her own prudence and audacious enough to believe themselves to be above the world, then no one can defend them from bearing the consequences and sent to hell similar to the spider's inability to stop a rock. </em>The author implies that the power of Almighty should never be overlooked at any cost. The other two options display the spider as errors and expendable which doesn't portray the idea of the author i.e. to establish the power of divine authority and hence, incorrect.
