What is the difference between puritans and Christians?

All Puritans are Christians, but not all Christians are Puritans. Puritanism is a denomination of Christianity. Puritans believe, based on the teachings of John Calvin, in predestination and election (meaning that everything you did, do, and will do has already been determined, and that only a few people who God has chosen, or "elected" will go to Heaven). I myself am a Christian, but don't believe in either of these. However, we all share in the belief of the trinity, which is God the Father, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus, Son of God.

Did puritans believe Jews and christians deserved religious freedom?

Let's see... the Puritans were indeed Christians themselves. I'm quite certain, Puritans (a sub group of Christians) believed in religious freedom for Christians. As far as their belief towards Jewish religious freedom, I would have to say they were likely against beliefs that weren't similar to their own. They'd believe the Jews were flawed in their beliefs and should correct themselves. Puritans got their name from the idea of a purity through doctrine and worship. They stressed the need for religious enlightenment and severe study of the Bible (i.e. read this book so you can learn to be like us). Likewise, they encouraged education of the masses so more people could learn the Puritan way for themselves.
