The Puritan colonies were insular and protestant. They viewed the natives as "unsaved" and were of the opinion that the only good Indian was a dead Indian. The Catholics saw the natives as human beings in need of God's grace and saving message. The Puritans fought the Indians, the Catholics converted them.
