The sociologist's conclusion follows logically if which one of the following is assumed?
Sincerity is required if community members are to trust each other.
The more sincere and open community members are, the more likely that community is to succeed.
A community sometimes can succeed even if its members subscribe to traditional norms.
Unless a community's members are willing to face unpleasant realities, they cannot be sincere.
A community's failure is often caused by its members' unwillingness to face unpleasant realities and to discuss them honestly.
