Explanation:

Roger Williams is a Puritan theologian, author, and minister who was also known as the founder of the Rhode Island state. One of his most important contributions is the idea of separation between church and state, which he expresses in detail in his publication, The Bloudy Tenent of Persecution for Cause of Conscience, which was thought to have influenced the tenets of America’s Founding Fathers.  

Option (C) is incorrect because though Robert Williams was against the use of taxpayer money for church purposes, this belief of his did not cause him to be exiled.
