The brackets around the phonetic representation of his name suggest it is a broad transcription when it is a narrow one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.140.57.113 (talk) 10:56, 24 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

I'm not sure President Saragat was an atheist: according to his son, "he was obviously Christian" (http://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/1988/06/12/voglio-morire-socialdemocratico.html?ref=search). In his inaugural speech he invoked "Providence" (http://www.quirinale.it/qrnw/statico/ex-presidenti/Saragat/documenti/sar_a_insediamento.htm). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.182.135.81 (talk) 19:40, 15 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Request for Comments edit

There is an RfC on the question of using "Religion: None" vs. "Religion: None (atheist)" in the infobox on this and other similar pages.

The RfC is at Template talk:Infobox person#RfC: Religion infobox entries for individuals that have no religion.

Please help us determine consensus on this issue. --Guy Macon (talk) 19:46, 21 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Religion edit

Most of his close acquaintances have always maintained that, at least in his latter years, he was a Roman Catholic, although his feelings were strictly private and any religious practice of his was confined to a restricted number of members of the clergy.He refused a catholic funeral but nonetheless ordered a private catholic benediction to be held before being buried. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:B07:6463:99D:4062:E6:62D2:79C8 (talk) 10:19, 10 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
