This is my (very rough) draft of my paper. I still need to write down all of the background and historical information, and cite all of the sources. I figured I would write down the general arguments and points I wanted to make and then flesh it out over the weekend.

I know it's very basic right now, but any feedback would be really helpful. I think it's an interesting topic and I like seeing the parallels between Shakespeare's time and now in terms of religion, especially since I get to talk about my own religion in the process!
why doesn't Hamlet trust his father's ghost? Is it because one is anglican and the other is orthodox catholic? Make sure this is clear in your paper. I liked the idea of your paper, but I felt like it doesn't delve very deeply into the themes it presents. Like why are christians this way? How do they resolve calling themselves Christians and being bigots at the same time? And what time period are we discussing? The Catholic church in general throughout history?
