The Puritans find it difficult to establish the godly community they had envisioned for several reasons. In order to have a viable colony, they admit craftsmen and artisans who are not necessarily godly but have the skills they need. Also many church members do not adhere to orthodoxy in ways Puritan leaders would prefer. The fact that people have broad access to land and can move if they wish makes them less dependent on family and community approval.
