Many people know that ‘religious freedom’ played some role in the formation of America’s foundation, but they may misunderstand what that really meant. In a well-written, substantial post of at least 300 words, address the following:
1.Citing two specific examples from the material where you learned about English settlement in the colonies, describe the ways in which religious beliefs motivated colonists to form the societies they did and to relate to the Indians the way they did.
2.Identify at least one idea from your readings that encouraged, surprised, or disturbed you about English attitudes and behaviors towards each other or towards Indians in the 1600s.
