Their main goal was to come to England and transform the Church of Rome to the Church of England. They wanted to start over for religious freedom. zjsolis1001_2 https://padlet.com/zjsolis1001_2/dzngzrazd8nc/wish/280861657 Alan Heimert and Andrew Delbanco, eds., The Puritans in America (1985), A&E Television Networks, October 29, 2009, https://www.history.com/topics/colonial-america/puritanism ]]> 2018-09-13 14:39:15 UTC https://padlet.com/zjsolis1001_2/dzngzrazd8nc/wish/280861657 Some important events that happened during the infamous Salem witch trials were in 1692 when a group of girls said they were possessed.

He reminded them of their duties and obligations under the agreement, if they completed them they were blessed, but if they didn't they were punished. Roger Williams was also a religious leader but he believed that the government should be separated from the church. He also thought people should have more religious freedom. Last, was Anne Hutchinson she spoke out against the Puritan leaders of Massachusetts. She said that they were focusing on the "works" for salvation and not "faith". amorales1051_2 https://padlet.com/zjsolis1001_2/dzngzrazd8nc/wish/282073025 Lukes, Bonnie L. Colonial America.
