So, what were going deal with today are larger problems. That are not necessarily individual behaviors, but people who are spousing ideas, and belief systems. And practice them and acting upon them. That are not just misbehaviors. But really question and shake the foundation of puritan society. That whole experiment. What happens when somebody starts to question that. What happens when people start believes and express believes. That run entirely counter to that. Because we talked about remember how important it was to them to make sure they were doing it right. Okay, according to to their understanding of their Christian Faith. They had to do it this particular way. If they didnt do this particular way, then they were going to run the chance of being abandoned by god, right . 1o which was a horrible thing. One of the mos
