Its something very rare, a german having five sons today.Perhaps, his wife was following the papal enciclic Humanae Vitae.Agre22 (talk) 00:34, 24 July 2008 (UTC)agre22
 * The article fails to mention his religion. Does anyone know? Lkjhgfdsa 0 (talk) 23:10, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

 * He was born in the very south of Germany. That would make him Catholic most likely, but that is just an educated guess.Alandeus (talk) 12:37, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I remember seeing a documentary on german tv about him a while ago. He's a member of a local "narrenzunft" (carnival, Swabian-Alemannic-Fastnacht). This would be very uncommon in non-catholic areas. The documentary also portrayed him as a regular church-goer, and the church looked quite catholic to me. I just don't remember the name of the documentary, I'll see what I can do. --The O o (talk) 13:35, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
 * His German article states that one son committed suicide. Can anyone provide any evidence that it happened? If so, it should be added to this article; if not, it should be removed from the German article. Lkjhgfdsa 0 (talk) 19:23, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, must have been three years ago. I found a reliable source and added it to the german article. (ZEIT.de) --The O o (talk) 21:57, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Why would it be relevant in an article about him to mention this nugget of information ? Reading the article used as a reference in the german article, it seems simply used as a counterpoint in discussing the deaths of sons in Afghanistan - Peripitus (Talk) 22:15, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * All significant events in a person's life should be included in a biography. A son's suicide is undoubtedly a significant event in a person's life. In any case, it is relevant to a person's bio how many children they have and how many, if any, have died. Such information is, where known, routinely include on bios on many sites and in paper bios.
