What commonalities kept the people of the massachusetts colony together?

In Massachusetts, political values were weak. There was a system of justice used to solve trials, and there was no testimonies or evidence that could override the system. Trials regarding witchcraft was a common example of how the trials were run until 1692. The ideas of Withcraft was a religous topic, and they were dealt with in a political way which proves that religion was considered into some things. In this case, religion was related to the politics of Massachusetts.
