Here's the thing, we can only guess at the absence of CDs in Tudor times because.
A: I don't think the technology was up to it.
B: No one at the time mentioned it.
But maybe they did and just didn't like to make a big deal out of it. Maybe laser technology existed then along with a rudimentary encoding system for brightly coloured discs, if no one thought to right it down or leave one where we could find it then perhaps , just perhaps they were all listening to Gleensleaves on their Henry walkgentlemen as they trundled to the docks for some of that newly discovered tobacco.
This seems all a bit far fetched but does seem to be very similar to the current argument for god, the one where we cant absolutely count it out because we cant look in the impossible place they have had to hide god because all the real places have been checked.
So how certain am I that there isn't a god?
A bit more certain than I am that the Tudors didn't have CDs.
