Syncretic beliefs section

@GoutComplex has added the following paragraph that describes Roger Williams blending Native American religious ideas with Puritanism. The only problem is that none of the sources cited actually make that claim. They speak of Williams having respect for Native Americans and observing that they had morality, but there is nothing in the sources indicating that he adopted any of their religious beliefs.

Some Puritans, such as Roger Williams and his supporters, drifted away from Puritan norms and incorporated Native American ideas about indigenous peoples' connection to their land and radical forms of religious tolerance into their practices.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] Williams did not view all religions as equal,^[5] but chose to incorporate some ideas from the nearby tribes' morality systems and their spiritual views and believed that these things were created by God,^[6] although he did not truly believe in Native American religion or philosophy himself.

Are you talking about Prohibition in the United States? While there was a religious motivation behind the policy, the driving force was the temperance movement in the United States. Adherents thought that prohibition would reduce or eliminate domestic violence. Dimadick (talk) 08:11, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
