Religious Persecution. Mainly threats thereof and so forth.

Drove. In Ships and over Seas, those Pilgrims

and Puritans. To

mixed therein in deed. Herein indeed

Our Modern Americans, Free or not,

 

begin Their Modern Dream.

 

 

The Pilgrims, Puritans + co.

like any Migrating invasive Force/Group,

needed Land. Lots.

 

Ignoring the Americas Traditional Laws, They

used Others.

This enabled wholesale Thefts, Takeovers,

Confiscations

of Many Areas. Much Land. From Others.

 

Then puritanically

began persecuting as well. Well as

 

 

 

Others and each Other. Also.

In The Real… Lil’ had really

changed.

 

Proper Catholics,

Puritans Not. That.

Religion has a tendency to bring People Together. And.

To pit One against The Other. Ripping Thems apart.

 

Such was the State of Societal Things.

16th Century, England.

 

King Henry V111 had decided to split.

From the Catholics.

A protesting Protestant. To Thems. Catholics.

 

These Puritannical Protestants protested…

and…

made a big song and dance…

about People’s Rights. Theirs.

Set Ups a Colony and Trading Post.

North of Plymouth. A Lil’.

Befriends many Settlers and Native American Indians.

Oft publicly mocked the pretentious Puritans. A lot.

Sarcastic too. To and which. Puritans outpoured

pure Emotions. Words as well. Well as

 

Their Puritan’s Magistrate and Colony’s Military Advisor,

both got plainly pithy also. Also both,

Pithed Offs ’bouts lil’ Thomas.

‘Cos of the Maypole erection, Dancing arounds

and getting pissedDrunk Parties.

Thomas liked Beer too. To

 

The Parties,

Which, accordings

to such as the William Bradford’s

History Of The Plymouth Plantation;..

went something like this, by including:

 

“… Ye beastly practices of Ye mad Bacchanalians…”

 

Which… apart from being beastly…

sound like a nice Party. Anyways, ‘cos

 

 

as Bacchanalia practiced by Thomas + co.

Guests…

included… Girls. At The Party.

Girls.!.

 

To Dance with.

And Beer. Lots too. To

Get Drunk… Party ons. So Forth. Forthrightly

a Party at Tom’s Place… meant… PAARTYYYYY…

Also. Forthrightly

 

though rather wrongly. The Pithed Offs Ones.

Who were Two. Puritannicals.

 

The strait-laced Magistrate John Endecott

and that stiff-necked stand-off-ish

Military Master Capt. Myles Standish.

 

Got more. Pithed Offs.

 

 

With Lil’ Party Hard, Thomas.

Probably ‘cos…

They did not get an Invite. Invitations

Their Guns were not let off…

 

 

Puritans chained Pilgrim Thomas. Morton.

With them. Chains.

Took Him. Off. The Dance Floor.

 

Labelled Him a Pagan.

Took aways His Glass of Beer. Barrel

Lifted His Hand off His Girl-

Friend. Cut His erect MayPole. Back

To size. Small
