Answer:
O D. God would defend the American colonists' fight because their cause was upright.
Explanation:
Thomas Paine's "The Crisis Number One" is a political statement about his support for the American people's desire and the act of revolting against the British empire. In it, he argues for the need to get independence and that it is the right thing to do for the American people.
Moreover, Paine continues to present an accusatory claim towards Britain and its king, <em>"I cannot see on what grounds the king of Britain can look up to heaven for help against us: a common murderer, a highwayman, or a house-breaker, has as good a pretence as he."</em> To Paine, it seemed like God will not even want to side with the British because of their desire to be violent while the US <em>"have so earnestly and so repeatedly sought to avoid the calamities of war, by every decent method which wisdom could invent."</em>
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
