Answer: C. Hypocrisy in religion is used to justify slavery.

Explanation: People who justified slavery based themselves on an interpretation of the Book of Genesis, in which the descendants of Ham (thought to be African people) were cursed by Noah to be enslaved. The hypocrisy is that none of those people were against the slavery of black men who were the offspring of a white man and a black woman.
