Sola Scriptura and Sectarianism: The Rise of the Rogerenes in Colonial New London, 1664-1721John Rogers and the Rogerenes is the story of unforeseen consequences of the transatlantic trade. John Rogers and his brother, James, were wealthy New London merchants who traded in more than just goods. They benefited from the exchange of cultures, languages, and even religions. Indeed, those influences led John Rogers to abandon Congregationalism and create America's first indigenous sect based solely on the Bible. As a dissenting group, John Rogers

John Rogers and the Rogerenes is the story of unforeseen consequences of the

transatlantic trade. John Rogers and his brother, James, were wealthy New London

merchants who traded in more than just goods. They benefited from the exchange

of cultures, languages, and even religions. Indeed, those influences led John

Rogers to abandon Congregationalism and create America's first indigenous sect

based solely on the Bible.

As a dissenting group, John Rogers and his Rogerene followers leveraged the Bible

and oftentimes outlandish acts of protest to challenge the legitimacy of Connecticut's

established church and its theocratic stranglehold on the everyday lives of citizens.

In doing so, the Rogerene sect was an outcome of what one historian has called the

rough-and-tumble life of a colonial port town, New London. Their rich and varied

story stands in stark contrast to Connecticut's traditional reputation as the Land of

Steady Habits. The only thing steady about the Rogerenes was their unwavering faith

in the Word and their willingness to suffer persecution for their nonconformist faith.

Beyond their colorful history, the Rogerenes have much to teach us through their

influences on such varied subjects as the separation of church and state, polygamy, faith

healing, the importance of individualism, and the rights of the marginalized.

Very dangerous metal shavings!!!
Negative stars if I could. This is a very dangerous product. It worked well for a while. But then it quit effectively removing the lid instead I got little tiny shavings of metal around the edge. These shavings of metal go into the food and very dangerous. So this was a waste of money and incredibly dangerous. I am throwing it in the trash today.

This electric can opener performs its function well and gets the job done effortlessly. With just the press of a button, it opens cans quickly and smoothly—which is very useful, especially if you prefer not to exert physical force. The design is comfortable to handle and does not take up much space in the kitchen. The battery life is good, and it recharges without any issues. Overall, it is a functional product that makes an everyday chore much easier.

Ive broken so many manual can openers from sheer strength and this eliminates that issue not only because it no longer needs my input but because this device actually works! Would definitely recommend it. Usb c charging is a god send, no batteries!
