c. affected, for the most part, only congregationalists.
d. spread quickly, but faded even faster.

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

The Great Awakening refers to the series of increased religious revivals that spread in the Thirteen Colonies during the 1730s and 1740s. Protestant denominations in colonial America experienced a revival in religious devotion, attendance to church services, theological discussion, and spread of Christianity among new converts.

The Great Awakening affected not only Congregationalists, but extended to most major Protestant denominations in the Thirteen Colonies, with the exception of Lutherans and Quakers. However, it was not a single unified religious revival movement. It led to major splits among the different evangelical denominations, as not everybody was comfortable with the increased religious zeal or was welcoming of its ideas. And while the Great Awakening spread quickly, it faded in less than two decades.

Sometimes it's argued the Great Awakening had a major impact on American society, especially on the American Revolution, but most historians agree it had a minor effect. Enlightment ideas, based on reason above everything else, are considered to have had a much larger impact on the American public.
