Athe strong role of the Roman Catholic Church in secular power structures
Bthe refusal of the Roman Catholic Church to recognize others' beliefs
Cthe familial nature of the Roman Catholic Church in people's daily lives
Dthe direct, oppressive relationship between the pope and national leaders

Verified Answer :

The best answer is B. The line states that the Roman Catholic church is the "mother" and it has "principality" over others: this can be interpreted as a lack of recognition of the other churches. (and the other options cannot be inferred from the text).
