Some labelled the Puritans ‘the hotter sort of Protestant’ — meaning that they were not satisfied with nominal religion but longed for something vital and ­thoroughgoing.

I guess these "7 day a week Christians" didn't mix too well with those "Sunday go to meeting Christians".

Weren't the puritans the group working with Oliver Cromwell that outlawed Christmas in England for 10 years? And if you were found to having a christmas dinner you were imprisoned?
