Answer: The Puritans were English Protestants in the 16th and 17th centuries who sought to purify the Church of England of Roman Catholic practices, Typical Puritan beliefs included predestination, an emphasis on plain worship spaces and a strict adherence to the Ten Commandments. The Puritans were English Protestants in the 16th and 17th centuries who disagreed with some of the doctrines of the Anglican Church. They thought of themselves as separatists or reformers.

Hope this helps!
