Journal Article
Religious Conscience in Colonial New England
2008
Overview
(Originally published in the first issue of the Journal of Church & State in 1958.) Identifies the religious motivation behind the English colonization of America in the 17th century & traces how religious intolerance was transmitted to colonial New England. The power of the Church of England in the early Massachusetts Bay Colony & Puritan persecution of \"dissenters\" are documented, noting the close relationship between church & state across all the New England colonies except Rhode Island, which never had an established church & was the first to promote religious freedom. The gradual spread of this new consciousness of religious liberty across the New England area by the mid-18th century is described. K. Hyatt Stewart
