Yes, Maryland was founded by Catholics for Catholics.
Maryland
The Calvert family led by Cecil Calvert, an English Catholic nobleman, started a colony where Catholics would be safe. This colony was settled in Maryland and allowed the Catholics to practice their religion without fears.
I hope you mean out of the first 13 colonies. Maryland was a Catholic formed Colony.
The Catholics held the political power in the Colony but were never the majority religion.
Maryland was settled by Catholics as it was the only colony at the time that would allow them to practice their faith without fear of persecution.
a colony that was formed to spread christianity and practice free religion !(:
As a colony where the free practice of religion was accepted.
There were mostly catholics during the 1600-1700s.
There wasn't a predominant religion in the colony of Delaware. Catholics, Protestants and Jews all freely practiced their religions there.
In the colony of Georgia, there was no specific religion. All religions were welcome, even wanted. The only exception were Roman Catholics, which were not welcomed due to the religious wars fought in England.
Rhode Island was about the only colony without an official religion, so practice was left to the individual conscience.
