Best Answer

The people coming to the new world were from England. At the time the king was trying to change the religion of the people so they decided to leave, because they wanted to worship God and only Him. When they came to the new world the Indians were worshiping other gods, and graven images. The Christians were trying to tell the Indians about Christ and what He had done for them and their families. Christians believe that there is only one way to heaven and that is through Christ. The White men were trying to save the souls of their Indian friends.
