Which lines from the Inferno best reflect Dante's message that "it's better to live a Christian life than suffer in Hell for eternity"?

A. And he replied, "O foolhardy creatures, / What immense ignorance trips you up! / Now I want you to absorb my teaching." (Canto VII, lines 70 - 71)

B."Tell me where they are and how to know them, / For keen desire drives me on to learn / Whether heaven heals or hell poisons them." (Canto VI, lines 82 - 84)

C. O vengeance of God, how much you ought to be / Held in fear by everyone who reads / The things that were revealed before my eyes! (Canto XIV, lines 16 - 18)

D. At that we moved on down to the fourth crater / Taking in more of that grief-stricken slope / Which stacks all the evil of the universe. (Canto VII, lines 16 - 18)
