Did Shakespeare die a papist?

I thought this article was interesting. Some people have made similar claims for famous protestants like Milton and Bach. Even if Shakespeare wasn't a Catholic himself, his works seem to show an appreciation for the Catholic ethos.

Meanwhile, it was quite warm around here today. October is going into the books as one of the top ten coldest since records have been kept. Either way, a warm winter is predicted once again this year. Perhpas it is only appropriate since the hole in the ozone layer over the south pole is as large as it's ever been since humans have measured it. Apparently this was a "record" year for greenhouse gas emissions.

Perhaps one of the reasons that I've distanced myself from politics over the past couple of years is that it's so self-serving. How can possible impending self-destruction not even be a campaign issue? I guess taking a strict stance against pollution and environmental destruction does not garner votes.
