Answer:

The correct answer is option D. pointed out the absurdity of continued loyalty to King George III.

Explanation:

Thomas Paine wrote his pamphlet Common Sense in 1776 to encourage the colonies to declare independence from Great Britain.  It was published anonymously and it became an immediate sensation. He drew on the political ideas of the English enlightenment philosopher John Locke, called the "Father of Liberalism". Locke stated that all people were equal and independent and they had the right to fight for their "life, health, liberty or possessions". These ideas greatly influenced Thomas Paine and would later influence the colonists to fight for their independence.
