Pennsylvania founder believed that tolerance was a great virtue.

Further Explanations:

Pennsylvania was an earlier English North American colony set up by William Penn. His belief of intolerance was of great virtue that helped him in the foundation of Pennsylvania. Penn being a political admirer was a supporter of democracy and spiritual freedom. He is popular for his treaties with the Lenape Natives of the United States and the construction of Philadelphia.

Penn belonged to the Quaker community and always laid emphasis on strengthening his community. When he observed that his thought was creating a difference in his community, he adjusted his thought to overrode the differences and resumed his missionary work in Holland and Germany. His views were creating split in the community as some of the citizens where favoring Penn’s formulation and some of them where favoring Fox formulation.

Because of his tolerance policy, Penn was granted with large part of the land of around 45,000 square miles from the king. The land was firstly named New whales and then later in honor of Penn, it was named Pennsylvania. Penn always supported religious tolerance and criticized discriminatory law which can also be viewed in his work.
