The correct answer is B) Rhode Island practiced the idea of religious toleration while Massachusetts Bay Colony did not.

The major difference between the Massachusetts Bay Colony and Rhode Island was that Rhode Island practiced the idea of religious toleration while Massachusetts Bay Colony did not.

The Puritans exerted a strict religion policy in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Since they founded the colony they were firm with the practice of religion. Let's remember that they left England because they had been persecuted by the Church of England for the many differences they had. Instead, in the Rhode Island colony, Roger Sherman, its founder, always welcomed religious tolerance as part of the developing of the colony. He thought that respect was an important value to show tolerance for personal beliefs.
