Answer:

Correct answer is The Massachusetts Bay Colony had strict rules governing behavior that were based on religious principles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Only the last option is correct because this colony was built by Puritans who had very strict religious principles.

Puritans were not religiously very tolerant, can be even seen as suspicious towards others, therefore first and second options are totally wrong.

Also, third option is not correct, as it was not created by Church of England, but by Puritans, as we said already.
