Why is Danforth skeptical of the evidence that Proctor and the others present to the court?

A: Because he genuinely thinks that everything he has seen in court is proof of witchcraft.
B: Because he sentenced 400 people to jail and 72 to hang, and if he accepts what Proctor is saying, it means HE might have been wrong.
C: Because he doesn't like Proctor
D: A and B are both correct. *

Why is Reverend Hale questioning Danforth and the courts?

A: He doesn't like Danforth
B: He has proof that the girls are lying*
C: People like Rebecca Nurse are being sentenced to death and he realizes that
Danforth might not be considering that the girls are lying
D: None of the above.

How is it possible the Danforth is so deluded, or blind to the truth, in Act 3? To the audience, it all seems so simple. We think, surely, we could have stopped this madness. Why can't he see the truth? Select all that apply.

He is being bribed by Abigail.
He is bewitched!*
He believes that you are either with the court, or against it.*
He believes the court is doing God's work, and that people are just questioning his authority.*
He has a personal vendetta against the people sentenced to jail/death.
He believes children are the voice of Heaven, so he has to believe them.*
