Not for protestants but for Catholics
Because a man by the name of James Oglethorpe offered to pay the debtors and poor people to travel to Georgia. Sounds like a bad idea...
One way Georgia differed from Maryland was in terms of its initial purpose. Georgia was established as a colony for debtors and to act as a buffer between the British colonies and Spanish Florida, while Maryland was founded as a haven for Catholics seeking religious freedom.
Georgia was originally founded as a haven for debtors. Back then when you were in debt you went to prison and at that time Britain was having trouble dealing with them all. So they sent them to Georgia, which would relive the strain of the government taking care of them and it gave debtors a second chance to become productive citizens that would benefit the crown.
Georgia
In the Colonies, Maryland was a safe haven for Catholics.
