King James I persecuted Puritan Separatists primarily because he viewed their desire to separate from the Church of England as a threat to the unity and authority of his reign. He believed that religious uniformity was essential for political stability and saw the Separatists' dissenting beliefs as a challenge to both his power and the established church. Additionally, the king was concerned that such movements could inspire broader dissent and undermine his absolute rule.
