What have the Puritans failed to learn from the persecution of their ancestors?

The puritans left England because they were persecuted because of their religion, and they wanted to go somewhere where they would be free to practice the religion of their choice. After finally making colonies in America, the Puritans adopted regulations much like their home country, penalizing those who dissented the central accepted religion.
