Best Answer

In the tradition of Puritans, Pride is a sin. The saying Puritans Pride may seem like a rather hypocritical statement, but it is possibly a reference to Thomas Pride - a civil war colonel who was forcibly removed from power on December 6th, 1968. The modern day expression often refers to a brand of vitamins.
