1. Cremin, Lawrence, American Education: The Colonial Experience, 1607–1783 (New York, 1970), parts I-II. “The sectaries were predominately separatists in their ecclesiology and were opposed to any form of jure divino ecclesiastical polity…. Puritans preferred the possibility of reforming the existing ecclesiastical establishment to the alternative of separatism…. Epistemologically they differed sharply from the sectaries by retaining rationalism in religion, though that rationalism was subordinated to faith and empiricism. The Puritans were moderately primitivistic in their religious and socioeconomic views, but not nearly so much as the sectaries. Puritans were not antiprofessional, though they were not averse to criticizing the legal class in England.” Greaves, pp. 4–5.Google Scholar
