The correct statement regarding the religious beliefs of the Puritans in comparison to other English colonists in North America is:

The Puritans desired an even more reformed version of Protestantism.

Puritans sought to purify the Church of England from within, believing that it was not reformed enough, while many other English colonists may have adhered to various forms of Protestantism or retained loyalty to the Anglican Church without the same desire for radical reformation.
