Frankly I still haven't seen much of substance to suggest that the Nice attack was religious, even though the French authorities are suggesting he was a self-starter inspired by ISIS. Not that I don't believe them, it's just all pretty vague stuff.
There's a fair bit of evidence to shot that the Nice attacker had become radicalized and that was the motivation for his attack. The strange bit about him was how quickly it happened. He seemed to go from swinging party guy to terrorist within the span of about 4 months.
