Answer:

Roger Williams

Step-by-step explanation:

Roger Williams was a Puritan minister who questioned many of the Puritan beliefs. The Puritan leaders believed it was their job to not only enforce all of the laws of the community but also make sure that everyone obeyed the Ten Commandments. Roger Williams did not think the government had any business trying to enforce religious rules. He also thought the Puritans should buy their land from the native people, rather than taking it as most colonists had done.
