Yes, because the Church of england was very strict about which religious practices were acceptable and allowed. The Puritans wanted more freedom than what the C of E was willing to give.
NO
Some puritans felt they should remain in the Church of England. Other did not think that was possible, so they formed independent congregations with their own ministers. Some of them even left England and came to America.
The Puritans separated from then Church of England because they (the puritans) did not agree with some of the ways the Church was running, therefore, deciding to separate from the Church of England.
The main objection among Puritans to the Church of England was the importance it attached to 'the Church, the ministry and the sacraments'. ('Ministry' here means priests and bishops). Puritans didn't like top-down church government and regarded the zest of some Anglicans for ritual as closet Roman Catholicism. Only a minority of Puritans wanted membership of the Church confined to those showing 'visible signs of regeneration (rebirth)'. Even these Puritans were often willing to accept some other members. Many Puritans still hoped for a national church, and that implied a broadly based church. Please bear in mind that there were differences among the Puritans; they were not a monolithic group.
They wanted to find religious freedom. People in England had to follow the Church of England, which was led by the king, King Henry VIII. That meant people had to follow his rules and laws. Some people, called separatists, wanted to break away from the church and create their own church. So the separatists went to America to practice their religious beliefs. They were also known as the Puritans. They did not grant religious freedom to others who did not share their religious beliefs.

No they were most definitely not Catholic, the Puritans found the Church of England (which was and is a protestant Church) to be "too Popish" (too Catholic) for their taste, so they left England and started their own nation, which eventually became the United States.

Because they believed differently and persecution, the Puritans left the church of England. The Puritans were a branch of a category known as "Dissenters" in the Church of England. The Church of England was a reformed movement that broke away from the Roman Catholic Church. Some, however, felt that the reforms did not go far enough. Some believed that church was not grounded as solidly as it should be on the Bible. Some sought to embrace Calvinist teachings, or sought to abolish the episcopal system, or other innovations. Baptists, Quakers, Puritans, and Methodists all can trace back to Dissenting movements of one form or another within the Church of England. Some sought spiritual piety, seeking a "pure" church. This led to some being nicknamed Puritans. Early Puritan leaders, such as Bishop Hooker and Thomas Cartwright saw themselves as reformers within the Church of England, not creating their own movement. During the time of Queen Elizabeth I, conflict developed. The reformers/dissenters were rejected by the Church of England as a whole, as well as the Crown. Gradually due to a failure to reform the Church of England (as they saw it) and due to persecution, the reforming movement gradually became a separatist movement, forming "underground congregations" in the latter part of the 1500s into the early 1600s. Puritanism as a separate church movement was now a reality.

Pilgrims and Puritans were both religious groups that originated from England during the 16th and 17th centuries. Both groups sought religious freedom and believed in strict adherence to Christian principles. However, while Pilgrims were Separatists who wanted to break away from the Church of England, Puritans wanted to purify the Church from within.
It depends which Anglicans and Puritans you mean! Anglicans were members of the Church of England, and the Puritan movement sought to bring about a more 'pure' (i.e. more thoroughly reformed) church. Some of them remained within the Church of England, but others began new non-conformist groups, either out of choice or because they were ejected.

It's because they wanted things done a different way--they felt the Church wasn't following biblical commands strongly enough.
With some disgust. They were protestants who sought to bring in to the Church all kinds of new beliefs and to do away with the ancient liturgies and beliefs. The church wanted to purify the dirty dirty jews.
