What are the teachings and beliefs of Zwingli?
A European, he was born Huldrych Zwingli. He played a major role in reshaping the Protestant faith back in the early 1500's. In effect, he challenged the teachings and traditions of the Catholic Church by proclaiming that the Bible, not the Church was solely the main source of Christian authority. His beliefs and teachings were based in christianity. For instance, Zwingli believed that the Last Supper was a symbolic meal which represented the blood and flesh of Christ. The church, on the other hand taught that Chrst was liteally in the meal itself. He did not form his own religion, rather he reformed and existing one.

What was the main dilemma between reformers and the Church?
Reformers were most upset by three main issues: The village priests married and had families, which was against Church rulings. Also, bishops sold positions in the Church, and this was called simony. Finally, kings appointed church bishops, and the Church reformers thought that the Church alone should appoint bishops. These all were part of the reformers' hope to get back to the basic principles of the Christian religion.

Why did the English religious Reformers purify Christianity?
The Protestant "Reformers" felt that the Catholic Church had some erroneous and abused teachings. Granted there was some abuse with the sale of Indulgences, this should have been (and was) corrected from within the Church, not through schism as Martin Luther and the other "Reformers" did. In addition to this Martin Luther felt that the Catholic Church was in error with their belief in using Sacred Tradition along with Sacred Scripture, and the belief that Good Works were a necessary manifestationof Grace. [Catholics of course do not believe that we are saved by our works, but as it says in James 2:24;26 Faith without works is dead]

Zwingli would have insisted that Communion is a purely symbolic act, not a sacrament.

The Pilgrims wanted freedom from religious persecution. The Church of England was the state church and all other religions were banned. Most of the Pilgrims were Anabaptists or reformers of the church.
