Different versions and different interpretaions agree at least on their monotheism.

I wondered what could have compelled Roger Williams to have said such a thing. It was his childhood.

"While a young man, he must have been aware of the numerous burnings at the stake that had taken place at nearby Smithfield of so-called Puritans or heretics. This probably influenced his later strong beliefs in civic and religious liberty."

It's two wrongs not making a right. Neither extreme is correct. No one should be killed for their beliefs, but neither should government embrace the wiccan/pagan minority.
