the answer is B

Right.

Your answer of C, "seekers after truth," is incorrect. The correct answer is A, Moses. Chief Seattle contrasts the religions of the white people and his own people in a speech known as "Chief Seattle's Letter" or "Letter to the President" that he supposedly delivered to President Franklin Pierce in 1854. In this speech, Chief Seattle discusses the differences in the religious beliefs of the Native Americans and the white settlers.

The quote you mentioned, "the religion of the writers is written on tablets of stone by Moses," is a metaphor used by Chief Seattle to compare the rigid, written religious doctrines followed by the white settlers to the Native American spiritual beliefs. By referencing Moses, Chief Seattle is alluding to the Ten Commandments, which were given to Moses on Mount Sinai according to the Bible. This symbolism suggests that the white settlers' religion is based on fixed, unchangeable principles set down by a higher authority.

While Chief Seattle's speech does mention seekers after truth, lightning atop a mountain, and the anger of God, these are not directly related to the comparison of religions in this particular quote. Instead, they are part of the broader context of his speech, where he addresses the natural and spiritual connections between his people and the land.
