What else can I help you with?
Did the Puritans get along with the Indians?
yes I think because they traded things. They also got along on the same land.I would disagree with the answer given above as historical records show that "Puritans" were a violent sect of Christianity (per se - by todays standards they would be considered terrorist). Historical documentation shows that the Puritans saw the Native Americans as "godless heathens wallowing in sin," and several documented accounts of Puritans murdering Native people as a 'governmental action.' Please remember that Puritans were responsible for: The Salem Witch Trials (for one example).March 28, 2013While some of what the previous dissenter presented is true, people have to be careful when they group all 'Puritans' into one group of Indian haters. If you remember that Rhode Island was created by Roger Williams, a Puritan Minister. Williams was on very friendly terms with the Indians, even have lived with them when he was original banished by the Boston Puritans. Williams idea was that RI should be a haven for those who wanted religious freedom.Now religious freedom wasn't Roger William's only goal. He wanted political freedom for all too. For a good accounting of the issues of that time, including the Indian Wars, you need to read "Roger William and The Creation of the American Soul" by John M. Barry.
What was the Puritan view of work and worldly success?
Most people think the Puritans were workaholics, who loved money, and viewed success as proof of their election and eternal life. Wrong on all points! They believed in hard work, but never to the neglect of other things, such as family, church, and community. Making money was one goal of working, of course, but not the highest goal-or even the second or third highest! The chief aims of work were to glorify God, to develop your gifts, and to help others in need. As for the last point, Puritans thought success proved their election, it's simply not true. The latter came to the fore after the success of the Puritan Revolution, and it led to the disintegration of Puritanism in England.

What about religion do you think should and should not be permitted in public schools?
Pretty much all of it. Religion may be important in history to show where civilizations got their beliefs off of, but now? It shouldn't be involved. Religion is a personal choice. You don't have to have one.
Should public schools begin the day with a silent prayer time?
No, public schools should not have a mandatory silent prayer time as it could infringe on the separation of church and state. It is important for public institutions to respect the diverse beliefs of all students and families. If students wish to engage in personal prayer or reflection, they can do so individually.
