But on the flip side, this also doesn't indicate he wasn't religiously motivated. In fact, suggesting that Muslims don't come in all stripes, including the drinking, dancing, pseudo-religiot, is essentially to subscribe to a neo-orientalist, borderline racist view of what a "real Muslim" is and how a "real Muslim" behaves. Hell, many bible-thumping evangelical Christians haven't read the damned book.
