Puritans & The Quest For Religious Freedom In America
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Like so many other groups who sought a better life, the Puritans created a new existence in America different from what they had known in England. The year was 1620 when the Puritans, an assembly of religious Pilgrims who were persecuted for their beliefs, made their way to the United States in an effort to separate themselves from religious oppression. Their goal was to find a land where they were free to practice their beliefs without the constant torment, and America was just the place for which they were searching. However, when they arrived, they turned into the very element of persecution from which they escaped; not only did they segregated their religion, but they also refused to allow other groups attain the same religious freedom they, too, had so badly sought. The writer discusses the double standard of religious freedom and the Puritans. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
