The Separatist Pilgrims sought to hide their religious ceremonies primarily to avoid persecution from the Church of England, which enforced conformity to its practices. They believed in a more personal and direct relationship with God, which clashed with the established church's doctrines. By keeping their ceremonies secret, they aimed to practice their faith freely without drawing the attention of authorities who could arrest or punish them for their beliefs. This desire for religious freedom ultimately led them to seek a new life in America.

Did the pilgrims or puritans get blown off from storms trying to get to Virginia?

The Pilgrims, who sailed on the Mayflower in 1620, intended to reach Virginia but were blown off course by storms and ended up in present-day Massachusetts. The Puritans, arriving later in the 1630s, had a more direct voyage to the Massachusetts Bay area and did not experience the same level of disruption from storms. Both groups sought religious freedom, but the Pilgrims' journey was notably marked by their detour due to weather.
