What was one of the most significant shifts in religion after the Revolution into the nineteenth century, and how did this trend relate to political attitudes during the time?
A) As the excitement of the Revolution wore off and the impulse for citizens to participate in political spheres quickly waned, Americans began to view sin as innate and inevitable and to take more of a backseat role in their religious and political lives.
B) Encouraged by the lack of sectional tensions over economic policies as the new nation grew and experienced a market revolution, Americans came to adopt cohesive religious beliefs and to develop more united views on the morality of slavery.
C) As individual property ownership by and large grew far less accessible, Americans began to feel that they also had less of a stake in religious matters and lost faith in the idea of a God-given mission to create an ideal society.
D) With the decrease in economic inequality brought about by the market revolution, Americans had less of an incentive to engage in reform movements and began to give renewed importance to ideas of Calvinist determinism in their religious and political lives.
E) Complementing their interest in having a say and exercising political rights, Americans experienced a theological revolution in which they began to see themselves as free agents who could choose salvation and improve themselves and society.
