Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dan possesses the quality of closed-mindedness. When a person have their own deal of ideals and values and when they think that their values and beliefs are only correct, it becomes difficult for such person to listen to others who have contradicting believes. Dan, being an atheist values his own personal belief only. And when he find someone who is of contradictory belief, he behaves as mentioned.
