[edit] a shame

Isn't it a real shame that Deschner's Kriminalgeschichte des Christentums (Christianity's Criminal History) hasn't been translated to English? I've already read some volumes... in Spanish! —Cesar Tort 19:04, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No reliable sources for Prizes

I can find no reliable sources for the Prizes ("Karlheinz Deschner was awarded the Arno Schmidt Prize in 1988^{[citation needed]}, succeeding Wolfgang Koeppen, Hans Wollschläger and Peter Rühmkorf. In June of 1993 he followed Walter Jens, Dieter Hildebrandt, Gerhard Zwerenz and Robert Jungk in winning the Alternative Büchner Prize^{[citation needed]} and in July of 1993, following Andrei Sacharow and Alexander Dubcek, he was the first German to be recognized with the International Humanist Award^{[citation needed]}. In the fall of 2001 he received the Erwin Fischer Prize, and in November of that year the Ludwig Feuerbach Prize as well^{[citation needed]}.") the GHits seem to come from this article. I've taken them out - they should be re-added only when sourced. A claim on the authors website will not do! NBeale (talk) 06:51, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Two

Deschner seems to have been in two places at once much of the time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.139.117.175 (talk) 13:15, 28 February 2008 (UTC) He seems to have been in the German Army from 1942 to 1945. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.139.117.175 (talk) 13:55, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
