The freedom of speech also was an addition to the freedom of religion. Many of the pilgrims were very much grateful to have arrived to their destination that they professed the grateful fullness as Bradford mentions, “they were brought safe to land, they fell upon their knees and blessed the God of Heaven…”(5). If they were still back in England they might have not had the permission to bless the God of Heaven. Seeing as the pilgrims were on different soil, they had the ability to voice out what they are feeling, thinking, questioning, etc. There was no one there holding their minds captive. The first amendment also “...abridges the freedom of speech..” which makes it illegal to, well, stop the freedom of speaking and voicing out your opinion.(Jefferson and Morris
