Puritans only
I think because they wanted to
They wanted freedom to practice their puritan religion
The Puritans who founded the Massachusetts Bay Colony in the early 1600s did not believe in "complete freedom of religion" where such freedom involves the individual's right to form his or her own views. By contrast, they believed in the freedom to practice their Christian faith as it ought to be practiced, namely, as they practiced it. Adherence to the Puritan understanding and outlook was thus strictly enforced throughout the New World settlement.
The Puritans were extreme Protestants who believed in a simple religion and lifestyle. They dressed plainly and believed you had to work hard if you wanted to go to Heaven when you died. They also believed that Sunday was the most important day of the week, and that on Sundays and the other holy days people should devote themselves to God.
Puritans were followers of the teachings of Calvin and believed, like the Separatists, that man was born in sin and they all bore the guilt of Adam and Eve. To become saved, they would have to prove they were worthy while here on earth. To be worthy one would prosper, be faithful, and lead a successful life. Instead of separating from the Church of England, they wanted to “purify” the Church of the influence of the Catholic Church within the Anglican Church, thus the name, Puritans. Puritans wanted to remove themselves from non-Puritans. They originally wanted to leave Great Britain because they were not pleased with the way non-Puritans were worshipping without much interference.
