Why did some settlers leave the Massachusetts Bay Colony to found their own settlements, and how did they affect the areas they settled?

I know that some settlers left the Massachusetts Bay Colony if they didn't agree with the rules. So they went and formed new colonies the way they wanted them. Like instead of being open to only one religion this colony would be open to all religions and any way you want to practice it would be okay.
