Speaking of puritanism, maybe many people will feel strange.First of all, what is the puritans?The pilgrims (Puritan), it is to point to require clear Catholic the remnants of the reformers in the church of England.The words in the 1560 s began to use, are derived from Latin Purus, to clean.The puritans believed in Calvinism (Calvinism), that the bible is the only supreme authority, no church or individual can become the interpretation of the traditional authority and maintainers.Then the Puritan thought: American puritanism is a spiritual movement from the beginning, it is not just a religion, but also a kind of extreme theory of democracy and republic.They are dedicated to build a utopian attaches great importance to the ethical and spiritual life of social mode.They believe the real freedom -- the real freedom to cover a wide range of moral meaning.They put all the destruction and contempt for the freedom of belief as anything to authority.In the end, I still want to say is, this belief casting national features.We have faith to do.
