The "Colonial" Puritans failed to convert the Indians because ultimately, they failed. Their harsh intolerance, along with other poor decision making (Salem Witch Trials) led to their own destruction.
The Puritans who rebelled against the settlement were led by Nathaniel Bacon in the 1676 rebellion known as Bacon's Rebellion. They were unhappy with the colonial government's policies and lack of protection against Native American attacks. The rebellion resulted in the burning of Jamestown and ultimately failed, but it highlighted social and economic tensions in the colony.
Separatist Puritans believed in completely separating from the Church of England and forming their own independent congregations. Non-separatist Puritans, on the other hand, wanted to reform the Church of England from within. Ultimately, the Pilgrims who settled in Plymouth were Separatist Puritans, while the Puritans who settled in Massachusetts Bay Colony were mostly non-separatists.

They have failed to learn that those deviating from the norm should not be penalized. 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.
