Answer:

Because some American colonies allowed religious freedom and America was seen as the land of opportunity.

Explanation:

The history of Colonial England in the United States is of great irony: the same Protestant groups that fled England for tolerance and religious freedom brought with them an absolute hatred for the Church. They installed laws and customs that excluded Catholics from all aspects of public life for over a century and a half.

However, despite the growing hatred of Catholicism among the American colonies, some colonies, such as Maryland, established some religious freedom (with limitations on Catholics), which allowed some priests and nuns to settle in America, as America could bring many opportunities that would improve their lives.
