When the realities of Virginia complicated this humanist ideal, growing disillusionment and contention marked debates over the colony.Rather than just "selling" colonization to the realm, proponents instead needed to overcome profound and recurring doubts about whether God wanted English rule to cross the Atlantic and the process by which it was to happen.
