JDB+Colony-

Joey Burchard AP US History  If I had a choice on which colony I would stay in, I would choose Massachusetts. This would be due to many points. Mainly, __I would have to enjoy the fact that church is as close to government as you can get it to be.__ I would enjoy the fact that all you have to do is go to church to understand the laws of the civilization. That would be the colony. You do not have to think for yourself because bible is law. Puritans take the bible to heart which makes them able to understand what they have to do to stay out of trouble. That would allow people more time to do yard work and other such things. I would expect that these people would be educated in the word of God, which would make understanding a whole lot easier. In Massachusetts, I would think that the social life of the citizens would be closer. This would be due to the fact that they have the same belief system. They all go to church at the same time and therefore were able to talk and communicate with each other in a spiritual and social way. I would assume that life in Massachusetts would be greater of value to my beliefs because of the relationship between church and state.
