The correct Options is D) The Second Great Awakening.

The Second Great Awakening was a religious and social revival movement which took place in the 19th century United States.

It was led by the Protestants of the day, mostly among the Methodist and Baptist churches.

Many Americans rallied behind the movement in the aim to create a better world before the coming of Jesus.

The overall movement had a significant impact on the socio-religous make up of the country to this day.

The movement rejected the rationalism and scientific celebration of the Enlightenment movement and instead focused romanticism and a sense of belief in the unknown.
