B. Rhode Island practiced religious toleration while Massachusetts Bay Colony did not . Roger Williams (1603-1683) firmly believed in freedom of conscience. He founded the Rhode Island colony after being banished from Massachusetts in 1636 because of his views. He advocated keeping church and state separate.
