Most spiritually inclined people believe that it is more important to be a good individual than being successful.
A) it is more important to be a good individual than being successful.
"to be" and "being" follow awkward construction, hence, wrong
B) it is more important to be a good individual in comparison to a successful one.
use of "comparison" with "more important" introduces redundancy, hence wrong
C) it is more important that one be a good individual as compared to a successful one
same as in B, use of "compared" with "more important" introduces redundancy, hence wrong
D) being a good individual is more important than being a successful one
correct
E) no less significant than being a successful individual is being a good one.
not clearly conveys authors idea, hence wrong
Please kudos my post, if it helps
