North America was founded on the three G’s: glory, god, and gold. The Jamestown and Plymouth colonies had separate beliefs in religion. The places that these settlers established their colonies influenced their lifestyles in North America. In many ways, the North American colonies were similar yet very different. In the 15th century, all people of England were supposed to believe in the Anglican faith. There was no such thing as religious tolerance in England in that time. As a result of this, the settlers grew their colonies on this same principle. Although the Puritans used their faith as a main part of their society, they still believed that there shouldn’t be people of other faiths living in the same colony as them.
