D) Hypocrisy in religion is used to justify slavery is the right answer.

Explanation:

  • The given extract from 'The Life of Frederick Douglas' emphasizes the hypocrisy in religion to justify slavery.
  • The narrator asserts that according to the religious scriptures only the descendants of Ham are entitled to be enslaved.  No other person can be turned into a slave.
  • However in the current scenario of the narrative the scriptures are not being followed.  
  • In the name of religion many white men get associated with slave women and their children are turned into slaves.
  • This proves that there is hypocrisy in religion which enables so much of growth in slavery.
