Answer 3.

The main opinions Paine expressed were that even though tyranny would not be easy to defeat, it was really possible and that the triumph would be great; that freedom was worth fighting for, and that American patriots had God on their side because their cause was noble and the British' cause was not. Paine expressed the efforts made in the retreat to Delaware, and the advances they had, and his hatred towards Tories.
