Answer:

1. Differed in belief

Explanation:

The word "dissent" comes from the Latin word dissentire, in which "dis" means "differently", or "to go on a different direction", and "sentire" means "to feel, think". So, the definition of this word is to differ in sentiment, opinion or belief. And this verb is often used when a person thinks differently from a majority, as is in the case of Justice Clarence Thomas's opinion.
