Some of the conflicts which the Americans felt about Puritan influences are:

  • That it contained cruel beliefs
  • They were at odds at whether predestination was viable and some did not believe.

<h3>What is Puritanism?</h3>

This refers to the religious sect that broke away from England due to religious persecution and fled to American colonies to continue their religion.

Hence, we can see that based on the opinions of Nathaniel Hawthorne that were contained in <em>The Scarlet Letter</em>, the Americans had mixed feelings and they thought that their religious beliefs would have an impact on their national identity.

Some of the Puritan beliefs that should be kept are:

  • The Holy Spirit is the energizing instrument of salvation
  • God needs a covenant relationship for redemption from sins.

Some of the Puritan beliefs that should be resisted or left out are:

  • Limited atonement
  • Total depravity

What is the minister's reaction when people plead for him to remove the veil at the end of his life?
algol [13]

Answer:

He is trying to hide his sins. Refusing to remove his mask seems like he wants others to be aware of their own sins before they see his. On the other hand, he is willing to be cast out by the people of the community.

Explanation:

He is literally willing to give up his love and the relationship that he has with Elizabeth. Men wear masks to hide their secrets. He is showing others that the mask has the ability to harm his relationship and to show others that they too are going to possibly have their relationships ruined.

Read the Bible where it has the verses where Jesus was telling the men to go ahead and cast a stone at the woman who was a sinner. Jesus told them, that if they are without sin, then cast the first stone. No one could cast a stone.
