Puritans were followers of the teachings of Calvin and believed, like the Separatists, that man was born in sin and they all bore the guilt of Adam and Eve. To become saved, they would have to prove they were worthy while here on earth. To be worthy one would prosper, be faithful, and lead a successful life. Instead of separating from the Church of England, they wanted to “purify” the Church of the influence of the Catholic Church within the Anglican Church, thus the name, Puritans. Puritans wanted to remove themselves from non-Puritans.

What was difference in the religious practices in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts?
Pennsylvanians were Quakers. Those who settled Massachusetts were Puritans. It would take a book to detail the differences, but here are a couple of belief differences. Quakers made a break with the Church of England. They are pacifists who do not believe in war. Puritans wanted to keep the Church of England but move it more away from the Catholic Church, so their beliefs were more like protestants.
Why did the Puritans want to themselves rid of the Roman Catholic Church?
First of all to reject the Anglican Church is to reject the Catholic Church, because that is what the Anglican Church is! Or at least a manifestation of the Body of Christ! The Church came to this country according to some sources, [Lingard, a Roman Scholar, ] just after the Death of Christ. He also reminds us that our first Bishop was Aristobulos, a friend of S. Pauls.The Puritans found all of this time wasting and irrelevant. They didn't agree with set liturgies and controlled prayer, they believed in a more personal approach to the Saviour. They didn't bother to take care of the church buildings or believe in what Our Bishop and martyr Bl, William Laud,] called ,'The beauty of holiness,'. They rejected the Real Presence and prayers to the Saints and Holy people of God, they had no thought for Tradition and the Holy Councils.Roman Catholic AnswerThe puritans rejected the Anglican Church because it was the established Church of England and they thought that when they had left the Catholic Church they had not left enough of its rituals and beliefs behind. They rejected the Catholic Church, ultimately due to man's sinful nature. They could not accept that the Catholic Church taught with the voice of Jesus, and they felt that their own interpretation of the Bible was enough to ensure their salvation. The sad thing is that in rejecting His Church, they were being disobedient to the very Bible they were claiming had the answers: Jesus said, "He who hears you, hears Me; he who rejects you, rejects Me."
