]]> Comment on What reasons for colonization can you find in the mayflower Compact? by Chuck M http://www.massmayflowersociety.org/what-reasons-for-colonization-can-you-find-in-the-mayflower-compact/comment-page-1/#comment-137 Chuck M Sun, 06 Jun 2010 16:48:04 +0000 http://www.massmayflowersociety.org/what-reasons-for-colonization-can-you-find-in-the-mayflower-compact/#comment-137 I'm not sure what you are looking for. This is from the Mayflower History. The Mayflower Compact was signed on 11 November 1620 on board the Mayflower, which was at anchor in Provincetown Harbor. The document was drawn up in response to "mutinous speeches" that had come about because the Pilgrims had intended to settle in Northern Virginia, but the decision was made after arrival to instead settle in New England. Since there was no government in place, some felt they had no legal obligation to remain within the colony and supply their labor. The Mayflower Compact attempted to temporarily establish that government until a more official one could be drawn up in England that would give them the right to self-govern themselves in New England.

Why did they rely on British technology, engineering, and sailing skills, instead of just following their "saviour's" example and walking across the Atlantic? And why were they so scared, if their "saviour" was with them? Pilgrims are always scared of something, which shows their complete lack of faith in any deity. What a bunch of LOSERS!

I wonder after his difficult posting he had to rest up with a bag of doritos. It must have been so stressful. Perhaps he can relax by making fun of some sad people at a funeral or something.
