Rhode Island founder Roger Williams believed in religious toleration.

Roger Williams (1603-1683) firmly believed in freedom of conscience. He founded the Rhode Island colony after being banished from Massachusetts in 1636 because of his views. He advocated keeping church and state separate. Rhode Island became a safe place for various religious dissenters and minorities to find a place to exist peacefully -- Baptists, Quakers, Jews and other religious minorities. Years later, when colonial America became the United States of America and the US Constitution was being written, Roger Williams idea of maintaining a “wall of separation” between church and state influenced the framers of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Freedom of Religion was not the law in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.The Puritans came to America so they could practice their religion as they pleased. However, they did not allow other settlers the same religious freedom. Settlers who did not follow the Puritan ways were not allowed to own land in the colony, and were often sent away. Anne Hutchinson--mentioned in one of the question choices--was a female preacher who was persecuted as a heretic in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

How do political parties serve georgians and u.s. citizens?

They are valuable for the appointive procedure. The two gatherings fill in as a quite decent method for getting similarly invested individuals together. In the event that they were not there, it would be substantially harder to distinguish great competitors, motivate them to keep running for office, bolster them. 
They fill in as a contradicting element to the intrigue gatherings. In the event that it were not for parties, the intrigue gatherings would be unopposed. The gatherings attempt to pull individuals together in expansive coalitions. The intrigue bunches attempt to pull them separated on single issues.
