Correct answer: The social activism of the Second Great Awakening gave rise to the antislavery and temperance movements.
Brief explanations:
- True: The revivalist energy and emphasis on individual moral reform spurred many adherents into social reform, fueling movements for abolition of slavery and for temperance (reducing or banning alcohol).
- False: It did not lead to the pope calling the Second Vatican Council (that was a 20th-century Roman Catholic event called by Pope John XXIII in 1959–61).
- False: It did not decrease church attendance; the Awakening increased religious participation and led to growth in new denominations.
- False: It did not contribute to the American independence movement, which occurred in the late 18th century before the Second Great Awakening (which peaked in the early 19th century).
