You instead chose to impugn me for making this criticism—which makes me think you don’t like to consider the evidence of Shakespeare’s childhood religion either.

You get a prize because you are finally beginning to understand my argument. I impugn you and the author of the article for the same reason. I don't buy the argument that if you did around in some author's biography, then you have the causes of his art.

Warwickshire and Catholicism aren't evidence of anything. They both exist, but so do stars and kidney pies. So what?
