Verified Answer :

I think it's D but I'm not 100% sure

Freedom of choice describes an individual's opportunity and autonomy to perform an action selected from at least two available options, unconstrained by external parties.

Divine right of kings - the doctrine that kings derive their authority from God, not from their subjects, from which it follows that rebellion is the worst of political crimes.


Freedom of conscience - the right to follow one's own beliefs in matters of religion and morality.

Separation of church and state -
The First Amendment states that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."

Correct answer is D
