Answer:

The correct answer is “Never shall I forget those flames that consumed my faith forever.”

Step-by-step explanation:

This excerpt comes from Elie Wiesel's Night book. Here he relates the horrors experienced during the holocaust. "Never shall I forget those flames that consumed my faith forever" speaks of the flames where the Jews were cremated and that is exactly what made him lose faith.

He lost that faith not only in himself, but also in humanity, because it is inconceivable that there have been people who could do these atrocities against other people just for having a different religion.

Given this information we can say that the correct answer is Never shall I forget those flames that consumed my faith forever.
