“They were tolerant of all religions” is a false statement about the Puritans. The Puritans were an extreme sect of Protestantism that wanted to “purify” the Church of England, and they were very strict about their religious values.

They did in fact form a colony in the Massachusetts Bay where there was no separation between church and state; the religious laws were the governmental laws.

They did value education, as demonstrated by the many institutes of higher learning that were founded by the Puritans.

Finally, the “Protestant work ethic” was adopted by the Puritans; they believed they were showing God their love through their works.

I hope this helps!

They were tolerant of all religions is the false description of the Puritans.  

The Puritans left the Church of England because they saw much of Catholic practices and beliefs in it.

  • The New England Colonies form by the Puritans, who practice religion with strict beliefs.
  • Puritans were not tolerant of other religions and did not allow others to settle in their colonies.
  • The reason for intolerance towards other religions was their experience in England response to persecutions.
  • In New England, they had little tolerance and no respect for the Native Indians, who lived in Connecticut and Rhode Island.
  • The life of puritans included the teachings of the bible and working.
