Society cannot depend upon a fanatic for guidance.
EnglishSynonyms
- Aoptimist
- Bmartyr
- Cbigot
- Danarchist
Explanation
A 'fanatic' is filled with excessive, single-minded zeal, often intolerant of other views. A 'bigot' is one who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions — the same intolerance. An 'optimist' is hopeful, a 'martyr' suffers for a cause, and an 'anarchist' rejects authority. Hence option (C) is correct.
