How was the Puritan church involved in the Salem witch trials of the 1690s?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
These guys basically plucked from a handful of "sinful wrongdoers" that they believed were to be punished by their own god, and yet took things into their hands. They'd accuse any woman as of being a witch. A servant girl, a sick old lady married to her servant, a homeless begger. And so forth. They played the game telephone and spread lies about anyone and everyone resulting in innocents dying.

How does paine view the role and importance of government in general? be specific
Kryger [21]
Paine, along with many revolutionaries of the period, viewed government as being inherently limited, in the sense that it was meant to serve the people and not the other way around. That's why he wrote "common sense" which talked about the absurdity of British rule over the colonies.
