Read this passage from "The American Dream."

One of the first things we notice in this dream is an amazing universalism. It does not say some men, but it says all men. It does not say all white men, but it says all men, which includes black men. It does not say all Gentiles, but it says all men, which includes Jews. It does not say all Protestants, but it says all men, which includes Catholics.

Which phrase from the passage most strongly reflects an appeal to logos?

A “an amazing universalism”
B “It does not say all Protestants”
C “but it says all men”
D “It does not say all Gentiles”

The first sentence, because it appeals to the reactions of the people and the reader which would be A.

Answer:

I believe the answer should be c; "but it says all men"

Step-by-step explanation:

The quote "but it says all men" appeals to logic because it shows that there is not group, it is all men, or everyone. The first one does not make sense and b/d both are support details to "but it says all men."
