The British settlers and Pilgrims came to America with the goal of preventing Catholicism in the new nation. England's dispute over the denominations of Catholicism and the Church of England caused much dispute and bloodshed, making American colonists very weary at first of allowing different cultures to affect the newly forming nation of the Unites States. For that reason, disputes with colonists and other religions flared almost instantly with the native Americans and France when settlers began arriving in America. France was mostly Catholic at that time.
