in act 1 part 5 of the crucible by arthur miller the author implies that reverend hale ignored evidence that contradicts his conclusions which passage from the text best provides evidence for this inference?

A- “Like almost all men of learning, he spent a good deal of his time pondering the visible world, especially since he had himself encountered a witch in his parish not long before.”

B-“He feels himself allied with the best minds of Europe-kings, philosophers, scientists, and Ecclesiastes of all churches. His goal is light, goodness and it’s preservation, and he knows the exaltation of the blessed whose intelligence, sharpened by minute examinations of enormous tracts, is finally called upon to face what may be a bloody fight with the Fiend himself.”

C- “This is a beloved errand for him; on being called here to ascertain witchcraft he felt the pride of the specialist whose unique knowledge has at least been publicly called for.”

D- “That women, however, turned into a mere pest under his searching scrutiny, and the child she had allegedly been afflicting recovered her normal behavior after Hale had given her his kindness and a few days of rest in his own house. However, that experience never raised a doubt in his mind as to the reality of the underworld or the existence of Lucifer’s many-faced lieutenants.”
