C) The Puritans desired an even more reformed version of Protestantism.

The Puritans sought to "purify" the Church of England from what they viewed as remnants of Catholicism and aimed for a more reformed and strict form of Protestantism. This belief set them apart from other English colonists who might have adhered to different denominations or maintained a more moderate view of Anglicanism.
