PLZ HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
Which of the following lines from Thomas Paine's pamphlet is refuting, or arguing against, the idea that the colonies should remain in British control because England is the parent country of the colonists?

a. But Britain is the parent country, say some. Then the more shame upon her conduct. Even brutes do not devour their young, nor savages make war upon their families.

b. Europe, and not England, is the parent country of America. This new world hath been the asylum for the persecuted lovers of civil and religious liberty from EVERY PART of Europe.

c. The first king of England, of the present line (William the Conqueror) was a Frenchman, and half the Peers of England are descendants from the same country; therefore, by the same method of reasoning, England ought to be governed by France.
