B Correct answer
Explanation

Lunatic literally means 'moonstruck' and refers to someone considered mentally ill or insane (historically believed to be affected by the moon). Option B correctly identifies this as foolish, though 'insane' or 'mentally ill' would be more precise. Unbelievable (A), symbolic (C), and extol (to praise, D) are unrelated.
