Human rights abuses usually have their roots in any of the following conflicts, except
a. political.
c. ethnic.
b. monopolistic.
d. religious.

The correct answer is letter D. Among the four choices religion would probably be an exception to the roots of human rights abuses. But this does not totally exempt them because there are practices in the olden days that violated human rights (e.g. witches burnt to the stakes). Among the four this is the least reason at present.
