Puritans in colonial America who violated religious or moral standards were punished through various means, including public shaming, fines, banishment, or corporal punishment such as whipping. More severe offenses could result in imprisonment or even execution, as seen in cases like the Salem witch trials in 1692. Penalties were often determined by the community or local government, which enforced religious laws and maintained social order according to Puritan beliefs.
Puritans based their laws on the Bible and their interpretation of God's will as revealed in scripture. They sought to create a society that adhered to strict moral and religious principles, often enforcing laws that aligned with their religious beliefs. Sins, such as adultery, blasphemy, and idleness, were punished to maintain a "godly" society.
The Puritans believed in strict adherence to their religious and moral code, and transgressors were often punished harshly. They viewed breaking the law as a threat to their community's stability and purity, so transgressors were often publicly shamed, fined, or even put in the stocks or pillory.

No, the Puritans were very different from the Amish.Puritans were very forceful with their religions and severely punished those who broke their laws. They also held which hunts and burnings to 'root out the evil.'The Amish are pacifists and do not force their religion upon others. The Amish also were Anabaptist, meaning they did not support the baptism of infants whereas the Puritans are believed to be the ancestors of modern baptists.Some prime examples of Puritan belief and severity of punishment is clearly shown in Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter."
