This have got to be the dumbest answer I have ever seen. If Roger Willams did "flee to Massachusetts and it later became Rhode Island", who the hell re-founded Massachusetts 58 miles north of the use-to-be Massachusetts? Roger Williams fled FROM Massachusetts.

Roger Williams settled Providence, the state capital of Rhode Island. If this did not help, I'm so sorry but you can look it up in the library nearest you or on another website. :)

He fled from Massachusetts, not to it. After fleeing, he founded the colony of Rhode Island and established the American traditions of religious freedom and soul liberty.

What were some of the disadvantages of the Massachusetts bay colony?

Roger Williams was a man who was ahead of his time. He was a Christian and a minister, but he found the Puritans to be far too intolerant and rigid in the way they treated dissenting views. Williams believed in what we today would call freedom of religion: he believed people had the right to find their own path to God. He did not accept the idea that only one religion (the Puritan religion) should be allowed to dominate, and he certainly did not believe that dissent should be punished. In fact, when he founded Rhode Island, he welcomed even non-Christians-- one of the first synagogues in the region was started in his state. He supported the idea of women speaking in public, and he also believed the native peoples (then called Indians) were being discriminated against-- he did not feel it was right for the colonists to arbitrarily take their land. These were just some of the views that got Roger Williams expelled from Massachusetts in 1636.
