Incompatible birth dates

Sources disagree: May 28, 1927 (Thomas Altizer, 91, Proponent of ‘God Is Dead’ Theology, Dies; Library of Congress Authorities) or September 28, 1927 (Integrated Authority File; SNAC).

The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
