The Puritans were a religious group of early American settlers. ISIS, or the Islamic State, ISIL, or Daesh, is a militant group of religious extremists in Iraq and Syria. It may seem odd to compare the Puritans to the Islamic State, but both shared religious ideologies that led to horrific atrocities committed in the name of their respective gods. The Islamic State and the Puritans are groups that use or use their god-like status as an excuse to dehumanize, torture, and kill innocent people without emotion or regret.

In the case of the Islamic State, they are manipulated by the secular military of the Saddam regime's Baath Party, who don't even care about religion in the first place.
