The Comparison Between M.B.C. and S.A. Religions

The Differences and Similarities of the M.B.C. and S.A. Religions

The similarities between the religion of Massachusetts Bay Colony and Saudi Arabia. On Sundays, Puritans heard two sermons in one day, and attends weekly church meetings which brought all members of the community together. Just like in Saudi Arabia Muslims attend the mosque to hear sermons and are all together gathered at a place to pray and learn more about Islam culture. Puritans believed that women had three main duties to fulfill in marriage; they have to obey their husband, have children, and run the household. The same in Saudi Arabia, women also believed that when they get married they have to do their duties the same way.

In everyday life, education is important for the parents that their children learn their own religion by the Bible or the Quran. These both religions want peace and harmony through their settlement or kingdom for the better place for the people to live in.

Their beliefs are different from each other and the God they worship is not the same, their ways of showing their Islamic or puritan culture are different. Their aspect through life is also different from one another, like their cultural and agricultural ways they practiced. Puritans were migrated from England because of their religion and were likely to form a new colony known as “New England”. And In Puritans, religion and political finances was closely linked to one another in New England. There are laws like, government leaders were also church members, male church members were the only colonists who could vote and colonist became full members in the church by becoming what the Puritans called God’s ”elect”, or chosen.
