How was Vane's relationship with Puritan leaders?

  • Supportive

  • Amicable

  • Conflictual

  • Indifferent

Answer

In a conflictual relationship with Puritan leaders, Henry Vane opposed their strict religious and political views. His advocacy for religious tolerance and separation of church and state clashed with the Puritans' desire for religious uniformity and theocracy. His criticism of their oppressive measures, support for dissenting movements, and differing theological interpretations strained his ties with the Puritan establishment.
