**Convergence of an Infinite Series**

Consider the series:

\[
\sum_{n=2}^{\infty} \left( \frac{4n^2 + 1}{1 - n^2} \right)^n
\]

Determine the nature of convergence for this series:

- **Option A**: The series is absolutely convergent.
- **Option B**: The series is conditionally convergent, but not absolutely convergent.
- **Option C**: The series is divergent.

To solve this, explore the behavior of the terms and apply convergence tests where necessary. Consider absolute convergence first; if not feasible, investigate conditional convergence or divergence.
