The Puritans aimed to separate themselves from the Church of England, which they believed was corrupt and too similar to Catholicism. They sought to purify the church's practices and governance, advocating for a simpler, more direct form of worship and a focus on individual piety. This desire for separation led to the establishment of independent congregations that operated outside the established church hierarchy. Their movement ultimately contributed to the formation of various religious communities in colonial America.
