Answer
A
their religious beliefs
B
their desire to explore unknown lands
C
their rejection of European culture and values
D
their desire to convert other people to their way of life

Explanation

The Pilgrims’ account emphasizes that their decision to leave England and establish a settlement was driven chiefly by their religious convictions. They sought the freedom to worship according to their beliefs, so “their religious beliefs” is the best answer. Exploration and converting others were not the main reasons for their journey.
