Question

What motivated the Pilgrims to cross the Atlantic in search of a new life? Select the two correct answers.

They knew they could escape the disease and natural disasters that plagued their homeland.

They wanted to move away from formal worship and the traditional church.

They hoped to start a community in which all religious viewpoints were welcomed.

They rejected the idea that the sovereignty of God needed the support of government.

Answer 1

The Pilgrims' motivation to cross the Atlantic in search of a new life was helped by options B and C.

According to history, the Pilgrims came to America to establish religious freedom.  This is bolstered by their argument that the Church had strayed beyond Christ's teachings with rituals and hierarchies that were not Biblical.

This implies that it was not to escape diseases and natural disasters.  They did not cross the Atlantic because of the rejection of God's sovereignty backed by governments.

Thus, their motivation to settle in America was to achieve some level of freedom from the established Christian religion.
