The correct answer is C.Sarcasm sounds positive but is meant to be the opposite

Sarcasm involves a dry sense of humor where something is said ironically to entertain or amuse readers. An instance of sarcasm could be telling someone "Thanks, you've been a great help", when in fact they have been strongly unhelpful and unsupportive towards you. Another instance of sarcasm could be telling some, "Aren't you beautiful?" when in fact they are wearing an ugly ogre costume for Halloween. 

hi there!

sorry i was debating over answering this question or not, but i do believe it is a sin to be gay. in the beginning, god created man and he created women to be a for man. there are many "political" views on this topic but i believe the bible is right. in the kjv bible, leviticus 18: 22, god talks about how it it is an abomination for women to be with women and man to be with man. god knows that everybody is a sinner, and he gives everyone a chance to repent. i'm not forcing god's word on anybody, but i do believe it is a sin. no matter the sin, as long as you repent, god is willing to forgive, you just have to accept him as your lord and savior.
