The Puritans believed in a strict adherence to a moral code based on their interpretation of Christianity. They established laws that regulated behavior, enforced religious attendance, and punished infractions such as blasphemy or working on the Sabbath. The church played a central role in both community life and governance, influencing daily activities and decision-making.

By the end of the 1630 where did most puritans settle?

The puritans left England in hopes to "purify" or reform the practices of King Henry VIII's new mandatory religion: The Church of England. You see, the King, as you may already know, had been through a number of wives, and couldn't just keep killing them. He was running out of excuses to make divorce okay in the Catholic Church, so he just altered the rules slightly, and called it The Church of England. There were groups called the Separatists who left because they didn't like the Church of England. Those people are the people you know as Pilgrims. The puritans, however, didn't mind the Church of England, they just wanted to purify its practices. They traveled to America in fear that the Kind would not like their attempt at reformation of the practices. They settled along the coast of the Massachusetts Bay.

Puritans Vs Pilgrims?

The Puritans were a group of people who were really hardcore fighters against the Anglican church and the Catholic church. The Pilgrims, though similar to the Puritans in that they both separated from the Anglican church, were different from the Puritans because they were just separatists, and didn't fight hard against the Anglicans. All they wanted was refuge from the volatile political situation of the time. Protestant: a member of a group of Protestants in 16th- and 17th-century England and 17th-century America who believed in strict religious discipline and called for the simplification of acts of worship. The movement was an attempt to remove Roman Catholic influences from the Church of England. Pilgrimage: religious journey: a journey to a holy place, undertaken for religious reasons with one dogma and belief as the Muslim go Makkah, Saudi Arabia and gathered there at Eid-ul-Azha... So the big Difference is Protest and unity ...


What are the three objectives of secular state?

There is really only one objective of a secular state: religion and its institutions should have no power over the state and national laws and, conversely, the state and national laws should have no power over religion and its institutions.All else is commentary on the aforementioned attempt to place a wall of separation between religion and the state, such as keeping religion out of public education (like Creationism) or preventing the state from appointing religious leaders (like simony).It happens that because secular states are divorced from religion that they often support increased commerce, better human rights, and increased civil society, but the rise of these other benefits is conditioned on a number of additional factors as well.


What are the disadvantages of wearing symbols that show your religion?

A possible disadvantage of wearing symbols that show your religion, is that some people are intolerant of religions other than their own, so you may encounter some hostility (that also depends upon what your religion is, and where you live). Of course the opposite effect can happen as well; you could encounter people who will like you more, because they see evidence that you belong to the same religion that they do. There are also some settings, such as a public school, which are supposed to be religiously neutral, and equally accepting of all religions, therefore any attempt to advertise or promote a particular religion would be considered inappropriate. But if you go to a Catholic school, then of course symbols of Catholicism are welcome.
