William Shakespeare is one of the most interesting men of the past thousand years. In fact, he was voted the number one man of the last millennium in the British Empire. When you think of all the personalities that excelled in the arts, science, literature, military and politics in the last thousnad years, to pick Shakespeare as number one certainly magnifies his importance to the Western world. Shakespeare's influence is unsurpassed. And the Bard of Avon excelled not only in the field of literature, but also in the moral and spiritual realms of our culture. Here Dr. Thomas answers many questions about this man: *Was there really a Shakespeare? *Was he Catholic, Protestant, or Puritan? *To which church did he belong? *Which Bible did he use? *Why did so many characters in his plays commit suicide? *What about his family and personal life? Dr. I.D.E. Thomas is a native of Wales in the United Kingdom, and has devoted the last 30 years as a minister in California. He has also served as a commentator for the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation). In addition, he is the chancellor of a seminary in California, and has opened a number of similar seminaries in various foreign countries in the Orient such as Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Guam.
