Discuss the development of religious and political freedom in massachusetts, rhode island, new york and pennsylvania. how did the greater degree of such freedoms enjoyed by rhode island and pennsylvania affect life in those colonies?

This question would require an answer of several pages. Although a great starting point would be the discussion of two men, Roger Williams and William Penn. 

Roger Williams was persecuted greatly due to his religious views in Massachusetts and so he founded Rhode Island. He advocated religious freedom which authorized the Jews to enter Rhode Island and establish the city of Newport. Rhode Island religious independence is also the foundation of the First Amendment. 
William Penn also endorsed religious freedom for other religions. The Quakers were persecuted in England and Penn helped their massive migration to Pennsylvania. He, who is like Williams, also promoted religious tolerance. Penn also promoted equal treatment of the Indians.
